CDBG (Community Development Block Grant)

The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a federal program that provides funding to local governments to support community improvement projects. These projects can include building or repairing affordable housing, creating jobs, improving infrastructure like roads and parks, and enhancing public services. The goal is to promote economic development, housing quality, and overall community well-being, especially in underserved areas. CDBG funds are allocated based on community needs and are managed locally, allowing communities to address specific priorities and improve residents’ quality of life.
