You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your purposes. \n\nIn the instructions at Grants.gov, you have to first go to CFDA to find out the grant number that you qualify. You can search CFDA various ways (by grant number, by keyword, etc.). You can find grant programs by category -- here are the lists of grants under Home Buying/Homeownership http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.FIND_GRANT_PROGRAM_TXT.SHOW?p_arg_names=func_cat_cd&p_arg_values=ML  Check if any applies to you\n\nTo make searching easier, Housing and Urban Development HUD has a list of housing grants http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/grants/fundsavail.cfm - though I have NOT seen any grants available for first time homeowners.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.\n\nNote though that these grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program. Individuals especially for personal purposes are not eligible for federal grants. \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html

Before going anyplace contact your local housing authority to get telephone numbers of public housing or Section 8 housing agencies. You need to find one that has openings.Section 8 is a good program. You can move into a house, apt, trailer and HUD will pay your rent, you only pay 30% of you adjusted income.  Most agencies also have a Family Self Sufficiency Program that would be excellent for you and your famiy.  It helps you set goals, employment and eventually gets you into homeownership. IF your housing authority where you live now has Section 8 voucher available, perhaps they would let you go portable to where you want to be.  If you have any questions about this program you can call my office 501 624-4405 ext 102 and I will help you in anyway I can.  Good Luck

My mom bought a home through a free grant throught the City she lived in. They gave her 5k and me 18k. Just ask you local city hall, or city housing department. Call 411 or check online for your state and city. It may take time, but it's worth it. Jesus loves you, ask Him to help you, he will.

There is such a thing as Homeless Facilities grants, but this is for agencies serving homeless populations. They can apply for Homeless Facilities Grants -- generally not to exceed $100,000 -- for acquisition, rehabilitation, and new construction of facilities providing emergency shelter, transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, or directly associated supportive services. \n\nFor the Katrina grants for the homeless, here is a directive of how it works   http://www.hud.gov/offices/cpd/library/katrina/ESGWaiver.pdf
