Rural housing preservation grants

Rebuilding Together Petaluma, Inc. received a $100,000 Rural Housing Preservation Grant (CFDA 10.433) from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service, awarded on October 29, 2026, with a completion date of July 29, 2027. The organization delivers housing preservation and rehabilitation services targeting very low- and low-income rural residents in California's non-metropolitan areas. Services include home repairs, accessibility modifications, and emergency housing rehabilitation for seniors, individuals with disabilities, and other special-needs populations residing in eligible rural communities.

This award represents one of four consecutive Rural Housing Preservation Grants received by the nonprofit since October 2023, demonstrating the organization's sustained capacity to execute housing interventions in underserved rural areas. Rebuilding Together Petaluma maintains administrative costs below the 20 percent program threshold, ensuring maximum direct benefit to eligible populations. The Rural Housing Service Single Family Housing Program has consistently funded this organization's work, underscoring its effectiveness in addressing substandard housing conditions and supporting very low- and low-income homeowners in rural California.
