Montgomery County Emergency Food & Shelter Program Grant 

The Montgomery County Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) is accepting grant applications for funding to supplement and extend current resources for emergency rent, mortgage, utility, food, and shelter assistance in Montgomery County.

  • This year an unprecedented amount of funding, more than $1.8 million, will be awarded.
  • Applicants must have an existing program in the category for which they are seeking funding.
  • These funds cannot be used as a substitute for other program funds or SEED money (money raised by a business in its infancy or early stages) to start new programs.
  • The EFSP Board will determine how the funds will be allocated among the emergency rent, mortgage, utility, food, and shelter assistance programs.
