ICYMI: Celebrating 50 years of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG)!
TODAY we mark the 50th anniversary of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program! Let's take a moment to reflect on the impact this program has had on communities across the country. Since its inception, CDBG has been a cornerstone in fostering economic development, improving infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of life for countless residents.
Over the past five decades, the CDBG program has invested billions of dollars into local communities, transforming neighborhoods, supporting home repairs, advancing accessibility improvements, and driving revitalization efforts. These investments have empowered cities and towns to address their unique challenges and build a brighter future for their residents.
As we celebrate this milestone, we reaffirm our commitment to supporting communities in their ongoing journey toward growth and prosperity. The CDBG program remains a vital tool in our collective efforts to build more resilient, equitable, and vibrant neighborhoods.
Thank you to all our partners and stakeholders who have played a crucial role in this journey. Together, we will continue to make strides in improving the lives of those we serve.
Here's to the next 50 years of community development and transformation!
