CBOs must meet the following criteria to qualify for a Community Grant: A clear path to site control Identification of a geographic area with one or more vacant or underutilized sites A community based organization with an established community vision and development capacity Some evidence the development site is environmentally impaired A demonstration of community support for the future use of the property There are two types of Community Grants: a Community Technical Assistance Grant of $10,000 and a Community Planning Grant of $25,000.

Prior grantees have used the funds to design community space at an affordable housing development, analyze a passive house design, conduct a Phase ll site assessment, and to conduct outreach for a capital campaign for a new building.
Community Grants can be paid upfront to a CBO which wishes to engage its own contractor or to procure specific services from an OER contractor.

On June 11, 2026, U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel ruled that the EPA's February 2025 termination of the $2.8 billion Environmental and Climate Justice Block Grant Program — created by Section 60201 of the Inflation Reduction Act — was arbitrary, capricious, and unlawful. The ruling voids the termination but does not order the EPA to resume the program, leaving the September 30, 2026 statutory deadline as the binding constraint. For the 116 grantees and the coalition of nonprofits, cities, and tribal partners that were already in award negotiations, the next 105 days will determine whether the program survives in any operational form or migrates entirely to the Court of Federal Claims as a damages action.
