Rural housing preservation grants

This $150,000 Rural Housing Preservation Grant, awarded on July 15, 2024 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service (CFDA 10.433), will fund the repair and rehabilitation of homes for very low- and low-income rural residents in Indiana. The awardee, the Southern Indiana Development Commission, will use this Project Grant to support necessary repairs, rehabilitation, and accessibility modifications to individual homeowner, rental property, and housing cooperative units across the region. This federal grant program typically provides awards ranging from $50,000 to $350,000 to qualified public agencies, private non-profit organizations, and other eligible entities to assist in improving living conditions and preserving affordable rural housing. As a past recipient of over $3 million in prime federal grants, the Southern Indiana Development Commission has extensive experience in leveraging federal funding to deliver community development and housing services.
