2. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA): The EPA provides grants for projects that reduce environmental hazards in homes, such as lead-based paint or radon.
3. Local Community Foundations: Many community foundations offer grants for improving housing conditions. They might have specific funding opportunities for local projects aimed at enhancing home safety and health.
4. State and Local Government Programs: Check with your state’s health department or housing agency for state-specific grant opportunities that focus on improving housing conditions.
5. Nonprofits and Advocacy Groups: Organizations like the National Center for Healthy Housing often have information about funding opportunities and can be a good resource for finding relevant grants.
6. Private Foundations: Look into private foundations that focus on health and housing, such as the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation or the Kresge Foundation, which may offer grants related to healthy housing environments.
