Buying a home

First-time buyers, families, and property owners with a clear housing goal.

For people working toward a home purchase, covering closing costs, upgrading a property, or protecting the home they already have. This is grant assistance - not a mortgage and not a loan you repay. Describe the property situation and how a one-time grant would support your goal.

DHHS grant programs are not loans. If you are selected, you do not repay the award. Applying does not guarantee funds. Write plainly. Completeness matters more than perfect wording.
