Community Wood Facilities Assistance Act of 2025
This bill makes changes to grant programs administered by the Forest Service to promote wood products.

Modifications to the program include increasing the maximum grant amount per facility, increasing the portion of a project's cost that may be covered by a grant, and changing the grant selection criteria.
The bill also modifies the Wood Innovation Grant Program, which provides grants to develop and expand the market for innovative wood products. Specifically, the bill increases the portion of a project's cost that may be covered by such a grant.
The bill also modifies both programs to prioritize grants for the construction, use, or retrofitting of forest products manufacturing.
