Partners for Places Jobs & Inclusive Infrastructure Initiative

The Funders Network (TFN) has launched a new pilot funding opportunity that will leverage infrastructure funds to train and expand career pathways for local workers in critical industries. The Partners for Places Jobs and Inclusive Infrastructure Initiative is aimed at supporting communities with investments and technical expertise to effectively implement equitable infrastructure projects. This funding is not for the physical infrastructure itself, but for the human infrastructure needed to create meaningful collaborations and center community engagement.

Additional Information:
The grant is intended for projects that are already supported by public funds. These include water infrastructure funds, as well as Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) funds that have already been allocated. The first round of investments will have a strong emphasis on place-based water-related projects. TFN anticipates at least half of the projects will focus on water project implementation. Those working in other infrastructure areas may apply.

Funding Agencies: The Funders Network

Frequency Details: TBD

Match Requirement: 50% by place-based funder(s)
