In an effort to support and strengthen our industry, numerous grants and resources have been made accessible to help you thrive in the ever-evolving construction landscape. These initiatives cover a broad spectrum of needs, from funding for sustainable construction practices to training programs and workforce development.

Tradesperson’s Tools Deduction: While not a grant, this is a tax deduction that allows eligible tradespeople to deduct the cost of eligible tools acquired in the tax year. This deduction could help reduce the overall tax burden for skilled tradespeople.

*Please note that some grants may be closed. Please check back periodically to see if they are open.
