About Community Development Grants for Public Authority

Community development grants for public authorities range from $450,000 to $650,000 in typical award sizes, with 7,368 active opportunities currently available. The Department of Housing and Urban Development leads funding in this space, though the Administration for Community Living and National Institutes of Health also support initiatives that strengthen public sector capacity and community outcomes.

Most awards in this category use competitive application processes, requiring careful proposal development. Nearly one-third of grants mandate cost-sharing arrangements, so budget planning is critical. To narrow your search effectively, filter by support type—program grants and capacity-building funds dominate this combination and align most closely with public authority operations.
