Episcopal Impact Fund Announces 2026 Housing Security Grantee Cohort

EIF Housing Security Grants - Nine organizations. One foundation: home.

$400,000 Invested in Bay Area Organizations Advancing Housing Stability

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, May 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Nine Bay Area nonprofits. One shared belief: stable housing is the foundation for lasting change.

Episcopal Impact Fund is proud to announce $400,000 in grants to these organizations, together forming the Impact Fund's 2026 Housing Security Grantee Cohort.

"Every day, mothers living in our two residential homes are taking courageous steps toward a brighter future for themselves and their children. They are working hard to break cycles of instability, pursue education and employment, strengthen parenting skills, and build new foundations for their families,” said Michelle Stewart, Executive Director of New Creation Home Ministries. “Support from Episcopal Impact Fund is what enables us to help make these transformations possible, moving our families from housing insecurity to housing stability."

The 2026 Housing Security Grantee Cohort includes:

• 3rd Street Youth Center & Clinic (San Francisco, $45,000): Provides integrated health, mental health, housing, and youth development services to young people ages 12–27 in San Francisco's Bayview Hunters Point neighborhood.
