Funding: state & local (big programs)

- NH CDFA – Recovery Housing Program (RHP) – HUD-authorized capital grants for acquisition/rehab/new construction of recovery housing; administered via municipalities/nonprofits; partnered with NHCORR & NH Housing. (Capital development—not rent aid—but expands bed capacity.)
Funding: direct help & scholarships (small to medium)
- The Doorway & NHCORR scholarship access – A statewide Q&A notes Doorways and NHCORR have access to sober-living scholarships; ask your local Doorway and NHCORR for current funds.

- Check NHCORR for certified homes; call houses directly for bed availability and fees. Ask if they accept Doorway/NHCORR scholarships.
- Apply for small scholarships the same day (Chucky’s Fight, ARCHway, The Family Restored). Ask the sober house manager for letters/estimates to attach.
