Tax Credits

Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP)

Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) tax credits allow qualified donors to maximize the impact of a donation to support the Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Program.

Qualified donors who make a donation of $1,000 or more toward Places for People’s Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Program are eligible to apply for NAP Tax Credits (these are considered 50% tax credits, meaning you could receive 50% of your donation back during tax time if you receive the credit).

Who qualifies for NAP tax credits?

Businesses, individuals who operate a sole proprietorship, operate a farm, have rental property or have royalty income are eligible, as well as a shareholder in an S-corporation, a partner in a Partnership or a member of a Limited Liability Corporation. In addition, financial institutions (banks, credit institutions, savings and loan associations, credit unions, farmer’s cooperative credit association, building & loan associations) and insurance companies are eligible.

Is there a minimum donation required?

Places for People has set a threshold of $1,000 to apply for NAP tax credits.
