Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) - Housing Program is sponsored by Kentucky Department for Local Government (DLG). This program provides assistance to communities for use in expanding affordable housing and economic opportunities. The Housing Program specifically funds projects designed to develop decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing.
While primarily aimed at local governments, small businesses may be involved in the development and rehabilitation aspects of these projects as contractors or developers working with eligible entities. All project activities must meet at least one of three national objectives: benefit to low and moderate-income persons, prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meeting particularly urgent community development needs.
