To further ensure equity and transparency, the Project includes a dedicated Advisory Board of 11 organizations, providing outreach support and applicant engagement and ensuring equitable, transparent project implementation. To ensure sub-recipients technical assistance needs are met, the Project will also include a dedicated team of technical assistance partners with subject matter expertise congruous with the projects selected to receive TCGM subgrants.
A grants portal will open in August 2024.For additional information about this funding, visit the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative.
