First Community Land Trust Of Chicago

First Community Land Trust Of Chicago, a Chicago-based nonprofit community development corporation, operates exclusively as a federal grant sub-recipient, delivering housing assistance and community development services to low- and moderate-income residents under federal grant programs administered by HUD.

The vendor holds no federal contracts and no prime grant awards. All three federal awards in the source data are grant sub-awards, spanning January 2023 through April 2025, with combined dollars obligated of $145,000. Activity is modest and consistent: one sub-award per year across 2023, 2024, and 2025. The most recent award, dated April 1, 2025, was issued to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons — the core mission framing repeated across all three sub-awards. An earlier sub-award from September 2024 carried identical program language; a January 2023 sub-award was designated Housing Assistance.

As a sub-recipient rather than a prime, First Community Land Trust Of Chicago operates downstream from a federal grant recipient (likely a local or state housing authority or a larger nonprofit entity), executing discrete housing assistance and community development components of broader federal funding streams. The sub-award structure, low obligated dollars, and annual cadence suggest the vendor functions as a delivery partner for hyperlocal housing and community stabilization work on Chicago's West Side rather than as a systems integrator or contract support services provider. No parent vehicles, customer concentration rankings, or recompete exposure apply — the vendor's footprint consists entirely of small grant sub-awards with no competitive contract presence.
