Community Development strives to meet three basic national goals: provide decent housing, provide a suitable living environment, and expand economic opportunities. In meeting these goals CDBG funds are devoted to four general categories which are: housing, economic development, physical improvement and public service. HOME program funds are devoted to promoting affordable housing, ESG funds are devoted to homelessness, and State FHPAP funds are earmarked for a preventative approach to homelessness. Homeless SuperNOFA funds are fpr the development of homeless supportive housing and services to transition homeless individuals to live independently.
