The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) is now accepting housing grant applications for $1 million in emergency and extremely low-income housing. Wisconsin organizations that provide emergency shelter, transitional residences, and extremely low-income housing are encouraged to apply.
WHEDA Foundation grants aim to improve housing for community members with complex challenges such as developmental disabilities, domestic abuse, incomes at or below 30% of the area median income, youth homelessness, and chronic mental illness. Grants of up to $40,000 are available in two categories: emergency/transitional housing and permanent housing. Applications are due Aug. 21.
