### Secure Funding for Your Anti-Displacement Work

Community-based organizations working to resist gentrification and protect vulnerable residents need streamlined grant applications that capture the full scope of their vital work. This **Anti-Displacement Grant Application** template helps nonprofits, tenant advocacy groups, community land trusts, and housing coalitions apply for funding efficiently while demonstrating their impact on preserving affordable housing and community stability.

#### Built for Housing Justice Organizations

Whether you're organizing tenants facing displacement, acquiring properties for community land trusts, or implementing innovative anti-gentrification strategies, this template provides a structured framework to showcase your project's merit. The form guides applicants through essential sections including organizational background, project scope, community impact, budget justification, and implementation timelines—all while maintaining the human-centered approach that housing justice work demands.

Paperform's flexible design lets you customize this template to match different funding sources, from foundation grants to government programs, without starting from scratch each cycle. Use conditional logic to show different sections based on project type, ensuring applicants only see relevant questions while you collect comprehensive information for review.

#### Streamline Your Grant Review Process

Traditional grant applications often mean juggling PDFs, email attachments, and spreadsheets across review committees. With Paperform, all applications arrive in one organized dashboard where you can filter by funding priority, geographic area, or project type. Built-in calculations automatically verify budget totals, while file upload fields let applicants submit supporting documents like letters of support, financial statements, and community surveys in a single submission.

For organizations managing multiple funding cycles or priority areas (tenant organizing, CLT expansion, housing preservation, etc.), the structured data you collect integrates seamlessly with your existing systems. Connect submissions directly to Airtable or Google Sheets for collaborative review, ping your Slack channel when high-priority applications arrive, or use **Stepper** to automatically route applications to the appropriate review committee based on funding amount or project focus.

#### Payments, Automation, and Compliance Made Simple

If your grant program requires application fees or deposit payments, Paperform's native Stripe, PayPal, and Square integrations handle transactions securely within the form. For multi-stage grant processes, use **Papersign** to collect board approvals, MOU signatures, or grant acceptance agreements electronically, keeping your entire funding cycle paperless and auditable.

Housing justice work demands both security and accessibility. This template is built on Paperform's SOC 2 Type II compliant platform, ensuring sensitive applicant data—from financial information to displacement risk assessments—stays protected. Customize confirmation messages to set clear expectations about review timelines, and use AI Insights to analyze common challenges applicants face or emerging displacement patterns across submissions.

#### Why Paperform for Grant Applications?

Grant-making organizations and housing advocacy groups choose Paperform because it balances professional functionality with genuine usability.
