About this program
The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service funds housing application packaging grants under CFDA 10.442, with the most recent award issued on October 26, 2008—over seventeen years ago. This program is not actively funding new grants. The portfolio shows 170 total awards spanning from September 2001 through October 2008, with activity peaking in 2004–2005 (34 and 31 awards respectively) and declining sharply to 10 awards per year by 2007–2008 before ceasing entirely.
The program packages single-family housing applications for very low- and low-income rural residents in colonias and designated counties seeking to buy, build, or repair owner-occupied homes. It also packages multi-family housing applications for organizations developing, constructing, or rehabilitating rental units for lower-income families. The portfolio consists entirely of Project Grants, all 170 awards funded by the Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service, which obligated $13.1 million in combined federal dollars.
Recent awards show substantial variation in magnitude. A $3.19 million Rural Housing Preservation Grant to an unspecified recipient in August 2008 represents the largest single award on record. Typical application-packaging grants range from $60,000 to $200,000; the August 2008 cohort includes awards of $200,000, $120,000, $200,000, and $300,000 to rural housing reservations. Smaller awards under $10,000 appear throughout the portfolio alongside six-figure commitments, reflecting heterogeneous project scope or applicant capacity.
No grant opportunities are currently open under this program. The eighteen-year funding hiatus indicates this line has been dormant since fiscal year 2008, with no published opportunities in recent years. Organizations evaluating whether to pursue this funding should confirm with the Rural Housing Service whether the program remains available or has been formally discontinued before investing business development effort.
