Community Service Block Grant (CSBG)

The Community Service Block Grant (CSBG) is a federal program that provides funding to local organizations to improve the well-being of low-income individuals and families. It supports a wide range of services like job training, nutrition assistance, housing support, and health programs. The goal is to reduce poverty and empower communities to develop solutions tailored to their specific needs. CSBG funds are managed by state agencies and distributed to community agencies that directly serve populations facing economic challenges, fostering local initiatives that promote self-sufficiency and community development.
