Funds are used by the city and non-profit organizations for housing activities, public services,economic development, and other activities that improve living conditions for low-and-moderate income people. Each year Neighborhood Services develops an Annual Action Plan that determines how CDBG funds will be spent.

During preparation of that plan, residents are encouraged to provide input so the funds can be directed toward the community’s greatest needs. Nonprofit organizations are encouraged to submit applications for CDBG grants to help provide services that address the needs of low-income residents. Neighborhood Services begins the annual application cycle in December.

For more information on how to apply, call 928-373-5187 or email NeighborhoodServices@YumaAz. gov ### **Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME)**** ** In 2016, the units of local government in Yuma County formed the Yuma County HOME Consortium (YCHC), providing a mechanism for the community to receive HOME funding from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Prior to the formation of the YCHC, local governments and non-profits in Yuma County received HOME funding through a competition hosted by the State of Arizona. The YCHC members are the Cities of Yuma, San Luis, and Somerton, the Town of Wellton, and Yuma County. HOME funds are used to create or preserve affordable housing opportunities throughout Yuma County.

Neighborhood Services serves as the administrator for the Consortium, overseeing the use of the HOME funding. HOME funds may be used for * Rehabilitation of single-family homes * Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA), * Construction of new affordable housing for sale to homebuyers or for use as affordable rental units * Down payment/closing cost assistance for homebuyers.

Annually, 15% of the total allocation of HOME funds must be set aside for use by non-profit organizations that are designated as Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO). If your non-profit organization is interested in becoming a CHDO, please contact Neighborhood Services at 928-373-5187.

Nonprofit or for-profit developers are encouraged to submit applications for HOME grants to help create affordable housing in the community. Neighborhood Services begins the annual application cycle in December or January. For more information on how to apply call 928-373-5187 or emailNeighborhoodServices@YumaAz.
