GRANT ALERT - HUD - Assets for Independence (AFI) Demonstration Program

Department of Health and Human Services: Assets for Independence (AFI) Demonstration Program

Application deadline: May 25, 2011

This program provides support for community-based organizations to offer Individual Development Accounts (matched savings accounts), financial education, and related services to low-income individuals and families, in order for them to accumulate savings and invest in appreciating assets such as a first home, small business, or higher education or training. Priority will be given to proposed projects that demonstrate close collaboration with entities that are serving families with young children, families in the child support system, children and families in the foster care system, people with disabilities, refugees, Native Americans, and survivors of domestic or intimate violence. Note: Webinars are offered through the Assets for Independence (AFI) Resource Center to assist with designing an AFI project and navigating the application process; visit the Calendar of Events to register - http://idaresources.org/Calendar
