Apply for a grant

How it works

1. Complete a brief eligibility quiz to determine whether your project is a good fit for this opportunity.
2. If eligible, submit an application describing your affordable housing project and technical assistance needs.
3. Select an approved consultant from our Technical Assistance Providers List provided below or propose another provider for consideration.
4. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and applicants can generally expect a decision within 10 business days.
5. If approved, Austin Community Foundation will pay the technical assistance provider directly.
