The Building Communities Fund Program, administered by the Washington State Department of Commerce (WSMA), offers state grants to nonprofit, community-based organizations and Tribes. The program's core mission is to support the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of nonresidential community and social service centers. Approved projects can receive reimbursement for 25% or more of their eligible capital costs, with the possibility of reduced nonstate match requirements under exceptional circumstances. This grant program aligns with a foundational mission of strengthening community infrastructure and enhancing service delivery, particularly in underserved areas within Washington State. The program specifically targets projects that will deliver services through social service and multipurpose community centers. A key focus is on facilities serving BIPOC and rural communities, as well as those located in "distressed communities" or serving a substantial number of low-income or disadvantaged persons. The impact goals are centered on improving access to essential services and resources for vulnerable populations, fostering community well-being, and addressing disparities in service provision across the state. By investing in these crucial community hubs, the program aims to create lasting positive change. Priorities for the Building Communities Fund include supporting nonresidential facilities that directly contribute to community service. Projects must be non-complete at the time of application, demonstrating an active need for state funds. Furthermore, applicants are expected to have made progress in a capital fundraising campaign, indicating a broader commitment to the project's success. The emphasis on LEED certification or an exemption from Commerce, along with the requirement to pay state prevailing wages, underscores a commitment to sustainable development and fair labor practices. These priorities reflect a strategic approach to ensuring that grant funds are utilized effectively and responsibly, leading to high-quality, impactful community assets. Expected outcomes of the program include a significant increase in the number of acquired, constructed, or rehabilitated nonresidential community and social service centers throughout Washington State. Measurable results would encompass the square footage of new or improved facilities, the number of individuals served by these centers, and the types of services offered. The program's strategic priorities are to enhance community resilience, reduce inequities, and provide vital resources to those who need them most. The underlying theory of change posits that by providing capital funding for essential community infrastructure, the state can empower local organizations to deliver more effective and comprehensive social services, ultimately leading to stronger, healthier, and more equitable communities.
