The Minnesota Housing, in collaboration with Greater Minnesota Housing Fund (GMHF), is launching the Single Family RFP through its Community Homeownership Impact Fund. This initiative is designed to expand and preserve affordable homeownership opportunities across all counties in Minnesota. The program’s mission aligns closely with the foundation’s broader vision: ensuring that every Minnesotan has access to safe, affordable, and sustainable housing. By focusing on single-family, owner-occupied homes, this funding opportunity aims to address both supply and quality gaps, particularly in underserved and economically marginalized communities. Through multiple financing mechanisms—grants, deferred loans, housing infrastructure bonds, and interim loans—the program seeks to foster community stability, economic inclusion, and equitable pathways to homeownership. The program’s primary beneficiaries are low- to moderate-income households, with a targeted emphasis on households of color, immigrant households, and those including people with disabilities. This focus reflects GMHF’s commitment to applying a racial and economic equity lens to homeownership initiatives, aiming to reduce historic disparities in property ownership and wealth accumulation. Targeted investments will support both the creation of new affordable housing units and the rehabilitation of existing homes, ensuring that communities not only gain new housing stock but also preserve their existing neighborhoods. Special priority will be given to applicants leveraging cross-sector collaborations—particularly in health and housing—to improve overall community well-being. Strategically, the program prioritizes projects that deliver tangible, lasting impact. Priority activities include acquisition, rehabilitation, and resale of existing properties; new construction of single-family homes; and stand-alone affordability gap assistance. Additional emphasis is placed on projects that advance Tribal housing initiatives, ensuring that Tribal Nations and communities have equitable access to homeownership opportunities. By offering flexible funding types—including forgivable loans and deferred downpayment assistance—the program allows local governments, nonprofits, Tribal entities, and developers to structure their projects to meet community-specific needs and financial realities. Expected outcomes are centered on measurable, high-impact results. Awarded projects must lead to the creation or preservation of affordable, owner-occupied homes with no more than four units, ensuring at least one unit is owner-occupied. The program anticipates that these efforts will expand the affordable housing inventory, increase homeownership rates among underrepresented populations, and stabilize neighborhoods. Success metrics will include the number of homes developed or rehabilitated, the number of households served, demographic diversity among beneficiaries, and the degree to which affordability thresholds are met and maintained. Additionally, the program seeks to generate long-term community benefits such as improved health outcomes, greater neighborhood investment, and increased intergenerational wealth. The foundation’s strategic priorities and theory of change rest on the belief that stable, affordable homeownership is a critical lever for advancing economic mobility and community resilience. By combining capital investment with equitable housing strategies, the program aims to dismantle systemic barriers to homeownership and create conditions for sustained prosperity. Through partnerships with municipalities, Tribal governments, nonprofits, and developers, Minnesota Housing and GMHF are fostering a collaborative ecosystem that ensures funding leads to meaningful, measurable, and community-driven change. This initiative is not merely about building houses—it’s about empowering people, strengthening communities, and reshaping the housing landscape in Minnesota for a more inclusive future.

This includes studies using implementation sciences in identifying specific conditions under which residential environmental hazard interventions, that have been shown to be effective in specific housing types and residential settings, can be assessed in other contexts.

The City of Wichita's Operating Grants program aims to provide essential operational support for qualifying 501(c)(3) non-profit arts and cultural organizations that significantly serve the citizens of Wichita. This initiative aligns with the city's long-standing mission to recognize, preserve, and celebrate Wichita’s rich arts and cultural heritage, acknowledging its profound impact on residents' quality of life. The funding is intended to bolster the infrastructure and day-to-day functions of these vital organizations, ensuring the continued accessibility and vibrancy of cultural experiences within the community. The target beneficiaries of this grant program are non-profit arts and cultural organizations operating within the City of Wichita. The overarching impact goal is to sustain and enhance the city's cultural landscape, thereby enriching the lives of Wichita citizens through diverse artistic and cultural programming. By supporting these organizations, the city aims to foster a dynamic cultural environment that contributes to community well-being and civic pride. The program prioritizes organizations that have as their primary purpose the production, presentation, advancement, or preservation of arts or culture in Wichita, serving its residents for a minimum of two years. Key focuses include organizations with full-time professional management or cultural/artistic staff, those presenting a full season of programming, and those demonstrating ADA compliance and adherence to equal opportunity employment requirements. The grant specifically funds operational expenses such as salaries, office rent, utilities, and general website upkeep, recognizing that stable operations are fundamental to consistent program delivery. Expected outcomes include the sustained operation and growth of Wichita's arts and cultural organizations, leading to a broader array of cultural offerings for residents. Measurable results could include the number of performances or exhibitions presented, the number of citizens served, and the overall financial stability of recipient organizations. The city's strategic priority is to invest in its cultural assets to maintain a high quality of life and a strong community identity, with the theory of change positing that direct operational funding empowers cultural organizations to deliver their services more effectively, leading to a more culturally enriched and engaged populace. Funding limitations are based on an organization's actual expenses in its most recently completed fiscal year, categorizing them as "Small" (less than $250,000 in expenses, eligible for up to 15% of expenses), "Medium" (between $250,000 and $499,999 in expenses, eligible for up to 10% of expenses), or "Large" ($500,000 or more in expenses, eligible for up to 8% of expenses or $75,000, whichever is less). Organizations can submit only one application per cycle. This tiered approach ensures that funding is distributed equitably and proportionally to the operational scale of each applicant, maximizing the program's reach and impact across the diverse cultural ecosystem of Wichita.

The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) is offering funding through its Housing Grant Program to support initiatives that expand access to quality housing across the state. The program aims to strengthen Wisconsin’s communities by improving housing options for low- and moderate-income residents through new construction, property rehabilitation, and adaptive improvements. By supporting innovative projects that address local housing needs, WHEDA seeks to foster inclusive growth and enhance the overall livability of Wisconsin’s towns, cities, and rural areas. Grant funds may be used for a variety of development-related activities. Eligible uses include new construction, building or site acquisition, rehabilitation of existing properties, and modifications to improve handicapped accessibility. The program also supports building conversions or additions that increase the number of housing units available. Projects may range from revitalizing underused buildings to creating entirely new housing developments designed to meet local demand. However, funds cannot be used for activities such as feasibility studies, market analyses, down payment assistance, ongoing operational expenses, or costs incurred before the grant award date. Eligibility for this program extends to nonprofit organizations and cooperatives organized under Wisconsin Statutes Chapters 181, 185, or 187, as well as community development authorities, housing authorities, local governments, and Native American tribal authorities. Nonprofits and cooperatives must be in good standing with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions at the time of application. The program is designed to ensure equitable access, but applicants that have received consecutive grants in 2021, 2022, and 2023 are not eligible for the 2024 cycle, though they may reapply in 2025. Additionally, organizations with outstanding final reports from prior awards will not be considered until reporting is completed. Each grant is intended to support projects that can be completed within a one-year timeframe. WHEDA emphasizes accountability and sustainability in project delivery, requiring applicants to demonstrate that their initiatives will be completed efficiently and will have a measurable, positive impact on local housing outcomes. Projects should align with WHEDA’s mission to promote economic development through affordable, stable, and inclusive housing opportunities that benefit residents statewide. Through this grant program, WHEDA continues to invest in the long-term strength of Wisconsin communities by empowering local organizations to address pressing housing challenges.

The Washington State Department of Commerce is offering a grant program for affordable housing projects in its 2024 funding cycle, specifically targeting Homeownership projects. This Notice of Funding Availability and Solicitation (NOFA) aims to increase the affordable housing stock in Washington State by supporting applicants who create affordable housing units or undertake related activities. While the prompt asks for "foundation mission alignment" and "foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change," the provided information is from a government department, not a foundation. Therefore, I will align with the department's implicit mission of increasing affordable housing and its strategic approach to achieve this. The target beneficiaries of this grant are individuals and families seeking affordable homeownership in Washington State. The impact goals are to increase the availability of affordable housing stock and support various pathways to homeownership. The program prioritizes new construction projects, down payment assistance (DPA), and affordability subsidies. The Department of Commerce aims to facilitate the distribution of funds across the state by grouping projects into three geographic categories: Rural, King County, and Urban (not King County), with 30% of funds allocated to rural areas, demonstrating a strategic focus on equitable access across different regions. The grant program focuses on several key areas for applications, including down payment assistance, revolving loan funds (RLF), self-help projects, short-term production loans, and affordability subsidies for long-term or permanent affordable resale restricted programs like Community Land Trusts. This broad approach allows for diverse project types that contribute to affordable homeownership. The expected outcomes include a measurable increase in affordable housing units and greater access to homeownership opportunities for residents of Washington State. The measurable results will be tracked by the number of new affordable housing units created and the number of individuals or families assisted through various program types. The maximum award per homeownership project is $4 million for new construction and $2 million for DPA and affordability subsidies, indicating a significant investment in achieving these outcomes. The department's theory of change appears to be that by providing financial assistance and supporting various models of affordable homeownership, they can directly address the housing affordability crisis and increase the overall supply of affordable homes, thereby improving economic stability and community well-being across the state.
