Sources of Preservation Assistance

The following information is provided as a general and partial guide to sources of funding for historic preservation planning and development projects. This information should be used as a starting point for a more in depth examination of funding opportunities. It has been prepared by the State Historic Preservation Office in response to numerous requests for information about preservation funding. We also recommend that you consult with local, regional, statewide, and national preservation organizations for information about preservation funding programs in your community. In addition, there are other financial incentives not specifically for preservation projects that may also be sources of funding -- for example: museum, library, performing arts, housing, energy conservation, community planning, and senior citizens programs. These other options can be investigated depending upon the current or intended use of the historic property. The availability of "non preservation" sources of funding varies across the state -- contact your municipal (village, city, town &/or county) planning or economic development offices for information about programs in your community.
