The City of Fayetteville’s Economic and Community Development is actively seeking proposals from local nonprofits to help the city address homelessness, mental health, youth engagement and violence interruption.
Proposals should address key community issues which support the activities identified in the 2020 – 2024 Consolidated Plan.
Each year, the city receives funding to support eligible activities through the Community Development Block Grant (CDGB), HOME Investment Partnership (HOME), and Housing
Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA). Nonprofits selected will provide eligible activities to serve low- and moderate-income residents.
The application portal can be accessed at FayettevilleNC.gov/ECD. Applications are due Jan. 28.
