Community Assistance Teams work with municipalities to help them access water infrastructure funding, with a focus on small, rural, and disadvantaged communities. Coordinating with partner agencies including the Departments of Environmental Conservation, State, Health, and Homes and Community Renewal, the teams help communities with their water infrastructure needs.

The Teams also offer consultations for municipalities where they review community needs and connect them to eligible funding opportunities. Those interested in a consultation can sign up at https://efc.ny.gov/form/community-assistance-teams-reque.
