Support HOME Funding

Congress is deciding how much funding to include in the FY 2026 budget for the Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), which provides critical funding to community-based development organizations. Key decisions are being made now by the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development (THUD) subcommittees in the House and Senate. If your legislator serves on a THUD subcommittee, your voice is powerful!

TAKE ACTION

Urge members of the THUD subcommittees to support at least $1.5 billion for HOME in FY 2026. Here's how:

• Check if your legislators serve on the Senate or House THUD subcommittees.
• If they do, find their contact info: Senate Directory | House Directory

Want to do more? You can strengthen your message by:

• Explaining how HOME funding has helped your community.

• Sharing state fact sheets and success stories
  

Protect NeighborWorks America

The President’s FY 2026 budget request seeks to eliminate NeighborWorks America, a congressionally chartered nonprofit organization. NeighborWorks has been a pillar of the community development field for decades, providing training, resources, and support that benefit organizations and communities.

TAKE ACTION

Contact your elected officials — particularly Republicans. Urge your governors, senators, representatives, and Trump administration contacts not to eliminate funding for NeighborWorks America. Tell them that NeighborWorks is essential to increasing the effectiveness of local nonprofits in providing affordable housing and supporting economic development. If you have examples of how NeighborWorks has benefitted your organization and your community, make sure to share them!
