Opportunity Summary:
The Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Institutions Assisting Communities grant (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5200 N 13) is a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Its core purpose is to strengthen the capacity of Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Institutions of Higher Education to play a bigger, more effective role in solving community development challenges in the places they serve. The program is focused on practical, community-facing work such as neighborhood revitalization, housing-related activities, and economic development efforts, with a clear priority on benefiting people of low and moderate income. The work supported under this opportunity is meant to align with the goals and eligible activities under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, which is the same statutory foundation that underpins HUD community development programs like CDBG.
Funding is provided as a grant (not a loan), and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which means applicants are not required to contribute a specific non-federal match as a condition of receiving an award. Individual awards under this competition range from an award floor of $800,000 up to an award ceiling of $3,000,000, indicating the program is designed to support substantial, institution-led community development initiatives rather than small planning-only projects.
