Full applications will open March 2 next year and close Oct. 16.
If you haven’t discussed your project with staff yet, please do so before submitting an application. You can contact a project manager at any time or email [email protected] . Note: The Urgent Need program does not require a pre-application.
The Urgent Need Grant Program provides funding to help local governments address severe, unforeseen conditions that pose an immediate threat to public health or welfare and have occurred within the past six months . Applicants must document the emergency, show all other funding options have been exhausted, and ensure activities meet federal eligibility guidelines.
The scope of the Urgent Need project must focus solely on the immediate threat. Long-term solutions must be pursued through regular CDBG funding grants or other sources. A total of $200,000 is allocated for the Urgent Need Program in 2026.
Eligible expenses include: Activities designed to meet urgent, health and welfare needs and for which no other financial resources are available to meet such needs Administration costs for grant funds (up to 12. 5% of the grant) All CDBG projects must meet a national objective and involve an eligible activity under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974.
The three CDBG national objectives are: Benefit Low- and Moderate-Income (LMI) Persons Prevention or Elimination of Blight Addressing an Urgent Need All activities proposed for in applications for the Urgent Need Grant Program must meet the Urgent Need national requirement to be eligible. Only cities and counties (units of local government) can apply for CDBG funds.
Large cities and urban counties are considered entitlement communities and receive CDBG funds directly from HUD. The following entitlement communities are NOT eligible to apply to the State CDBG program: Kansas City, Lawrence, Leavenworth, Manhattan, Overland Park, Topeka, Wichita, and all of Johnson County. Revised 2026 guidelines will be available in March.
Key considerations include: The conditions are such that they pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community. These conditions must be of recent origin and have become urgent within six months following the disaster. Applications must be certified as an urgent need by the agency having jurisdiction over said conditions.
The project must demonstrate that no other financial resources are available to address the conditions. This includes financing the project themselves or having access to any local, state, or federal funding resources. The applicant is responsible for paying the cost of the Environmental Review, which will count as the match for the application.
Is an environmental review always required? Yes, all CDBG-funded projects are federally required to have an environmental review. The Environmental Determination of Level of Review form must be submitted with the application.
This will inform Commerce as to what level of environmental review you will undertake for your project if awarded. Post-award, the city or county must conduct a full environmental review of the project, even for small projects that don’t require construction . This responsibility cannot be delegated and the cost to conduct the review must be paid with local funds .
Project activities may not begin until after Commerce issues the environmental release of project funds. What is the timeline for Urgent Need projects? Unlike most CDBG programs, the Urgent Need Grant Program operates on an accelerated one-year timeline.
Applications submitted will be reviewed as soon as possible. If approved, a contract with the state will be executed within 30 days of the award notice, and construction must begin within 60 days. Projects must be planned for completion within 12 months of the start date.
Failure to meet these deadlines may result in the grant being withdrawn by the Department of Commerce. What is the public hearing process for Urgent Need grants? Before submitting an application, the local government must hold a public hearing to allow citizens the opportunity to comment on community needs and the proposed use of funds, especially residents of proposed project areas.
The purpose of the hearing is to inform citizens about the proposed project, including its location, total cost, activities, and beneficiaries. Community members must be given a chance to suggest other project ideas and share their input, and the local governing body should carefully consider this feedback before submitting the application.
Requirements to Publish a Public Notice: The notice about the hearing must be published at least 5 FULL days in advance (but no more than 20 days) in advance to allow citizens the opportunity to schedule their attendance. The day that the public hearing notice is first advertised and the day of the public hearing do NOT count towards the minimum 5 day period.
Notices must be published in a local newspaper having the widest general circulation in the community or on the grantee government website that is accessible to persons with disabilities or Limited English Proficiency. The total project funding and CDBG amount requested must match what appears in the public hearing notice.
Due to the urgent nature of these projects, the required public comment period after the hearing has been shortened from 15 full days to 5 full days. The initial public hearing must be held at least 5 FULL days before the CDBG application is submitted to allow for public comment after, and no earlier than 120 days.
See other communities that have received funding in past years The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meet a community development need having a particular urgency.
Based on program participants With an LMI (low- and moderate-income) of {{lmi}}%, you will have to survey and provide benefit to an area in your community with 51% LMI. Learn more about the survey process. View LMI Family Income Limits for LMI calculations are from the 2020 Census and LMI by household are from 2026 HUD Section 8.
Final LMI will be confirmed upon application review. Assistance from a professional with CDBG grant experience can help you streamline and strengthen your application. Some or all of the costs to engage help can be covered by your award.

The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking launched its AI Gigafactories call on 30 July 2026 as a joint procurement, not a conventional research grant, and that distinction shapes who should respond. It seeks consortia or Special Purpose Vehicles bringing together companies, public entities, investors and other partners to establish up to seven AI Gigafactories across Europe - facilities that combine massive computing power and state-of-the-art AI processors with the software and cloud technology stacks, high-bandwidth connectivity and energy-efficient data centres needed to deliver frontier AI training, fine-tuning and inference at scale. This is the tier above the 19 AI Factories and 13 AI Factory Antennas EuroHPC already oversees, which serve SMEs and startups with free customised support; the Gigafactories are aimed at frontier-scale sovereign capacity. The financing model is blended: EuroHPC expects total private investment of more than EUR 20,000,000,000 across the EU, with successful projects receiving varying levels of EU and national co-funding calibrated to the size and range of sovereign services offered. Per-facility EU contributions have deliberately not been published, so applicants must build their own capital stack and negotiate co-funding rather than apply against a fixed grant envelope. Facilities may be established in a single Member State or span several, and cross-border developments are explicitly welcomed. The reference is EUROHPC-2026-CEI-AIGF-01 and the deadline is 12 November 2026 at 16:00 CET. Realistically this is a call for infrastructure-grade consortia with credible access to billions in capital, energy siting and hyperscale operations experience - not for individual research groups or early-stage startups, who should instead route through the existing AI Factories network.
HMGCC Co-Creation and Dstl are seeking an edge device that processes video and audio from off-the-shelf smart glasses and stitches frames into high-fidelity 3D maps for reconnaissance. The minimum deliverable is a TRL 4 proof of concept. AI, computer vision and machine learning are listed technology themes, for example algorithms that compensate for head movement while stitching frames. Essential requirements are a report on where smart-glasses data flows and who can access it, good daytime urban imagery, and a camera-based 3D map. Desirable features include low-light imaging, audio fusion, testing across several manufacturers and a three-year manufacturer roadmap, and the stretch goal is fusing audio and visual data to handle reflections and solid walls. Redesigning or physically modifying the glasses is out of scope, and data handling must comply with GDPR and manufacturer terms. The total budget is up to £60,000, about US$80,000, excluding VAT, with on average two providers funded for a 12-week project. Questions are due 29 October, pitch day is 25 November, and kick-off is targeted for January 2027. Applications close on 12 November 2026 at 17:00 UK time.
HMGCC Co-Creation and Dstl are seeking proof-of-concept small robots that can move through confined built environments across at least two of water, land and air, at TRL 4 or above. Essential requirements are a payload of at least 100 g, a demonstration in a representative built-environment scenario, and a final report with a development roadmap. Desirable features include operation in all three domains, up to one hour of operation, autonomous navigation, operation with intermittent GNSS, travel through ducts or pipes, a volume under 0.01 cubic metres and a mass under 1 kg. Humans must keep responsibility for operational decisions, and the system must not depend on continuous public cloud access. Funding is up to £60,000, about US$80,000, excluding VAT, and on average two providers are funded per challenge. The call opened on 12 October 2026. Applicants are notified on 23 November, pitch day is 7 December, and kick-off is targeted for January 2027 for a project of about 10-12 weeks. Applications close on 12 November 2026 at 17:00 UK time.
In January 2026, DOE Policy Flash PF-2026-30 wiped out every 15% and 10% indirect cost cap the administration had imposed in 2025 — because H.R. 6938 ordered it to. The same law froze indirect policy at NSF, Commerce and NASA. But OMB's sweeping new grants rule quietly reopens the fight through the back door. Here is what changed, what money recipients can claw back, and how to protect your indirect recovery going forward.
