USDA’s Community Facilities Programs offer direct loans, loan guarantees, and grants for public service buildings to improve the quality of life, develop, and sustain rural America. USDA’s financial support enhances the competitiveness of our rural communities to attract and retain businesses that provide employment and services for residents.
USDA’s Community Facilities Programs also fund building projects for public bodies, non-profit organizations, and federally-recognized American Indian Tribes to provide essential health care, education, public safety, and other civic services. Examples include fire and rescue stations, health care facilities and rehab centers, adult and child care centers, assisted living facilities, town halls, schools, and libraries. Financing may also cover costs for land acquisition, professional fees, and equipment.
