This is a forecast: the funder has announced the opportunity but it is not open yet; posting is expected around 16 Dec 2026 and the estimated deadline is 31 Mar 2027.

About this call

The primary objective of the Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) program is the development of viable Indian and Alaska Native communities, including the creation of decent housing, suitable living environments, and economic opportunities primarily for persons of low-and moderate-incomes. See the ICDBG regulations at 24 CFR 1003.2, the full text of which is available at 24 CFR part 1003 .

a. Single Purpose Grants. Projects funded by the ICDBG program must principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons (24 CFR 1003.208). These are competitive grants and are the subject of this NOFO.

b. Imminent Threat Grants. Projects funded with Imminent Threat grant funds are to address issues that have an immediate negative impact on public health or safety of tribal residents.

You do not have to apply for an Imminent Threat grant by the deadline established in this NOFO. These funds are awarded on a first-come first-serve basis until the amount set aside for this purpose is expended. The Imminent Threat request must be submitted to the Area ONAP for your region in accordance with Notice PIH 2025-09 (supersedes Program Guidance 2018-04), and the requirements in 24 CFR part 1003 subpart E .

Who can apply

• Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments)
