Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations, faith-based organizations, and government agencies.

Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA)

Neighborhood Matching Grant (NMG)

Qualifying neighborhoods are awarded funds for specific projects that result in a physical improvement to their neighborhood. 

    Some projects include decorative street lighting, neighborhood park improvements, tree planting and many other physical improvements for neighborhoods. Funds may be used for projects that enhance safety, address a neglected problem or improve the physical appearance of a neighborhood.
