Federal Grants in Montana

Federal grants are available nationally — Montana organizations apply directly to federal agencies. These 29 active opportunities are open to eligible applicants in Montana right now.

HUD's major formula grant programs — Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) — flow annually to Montana entitlement cities, urban counties, and to the state government for distribution to non-entitlement areas. Montana nonprofits, community development corporations (CDCs), and housing authorities access most HUD funding through these local entitlement recipients rather than applying directly to HUD. HUD competitive programs — Choice Neighborhoods ($30–50M per award), Strong Cities Strong Communities, and YES Initiative — are open to Montana jurisdictions and their nonprofit partners directly.

For homeless services in Montana, HUD's Continuum of Care (CoC) program is the primary competitive federal mechanism. Montana organizations apply through their local CoC collaborative's annual application to HUD — CoC boundaries, lead applicants, and competition timelines are listed on HUD's CoC database and HUDX tools. USDA Rural Development provides Rural Rental Housing grants and loans for affordable housing development in Montana rural communities with populations under 10,000. The Treasury Department's CDFI Fund provides grants and New Markets Tax Credit allocations to Montana Community Development Financial Institutions lending in low-income communities — CDFI Program awards range from $500,000 to $2 million annually per institution.
