County Opens Applications for 2027-2028 Community Development Block Grants
Nonprofits and public agencies serving unincorporated areas have until 3 p.m. Oct. 30 to apply for HUD-funded community projects.
The County is now accepting applications for its 2027-2028 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, with a deadline of 3 p.m. on Oct. 30, 2026, the County Communications Office announced.
CDBG funds support community facilities, infrastructure improvements, affordable housing acquisition or preservation, neighborhood enhancement and a limited range of public services, according to the County News Center.
To qualify under the Notice of Funding Availability, projects must be located in the unincorporated area of the County. Applicants with projects in Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Poway and Solana Beach should contact their local housing department; other cities in the region administer their own CDBG programs through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Only public entities or tax-exempt nonprofit organizations are eligible to receive CDBG funding. Community members may propose project ideas but cannot receive funding directly.
Applications are available online through the County's Housing and Community Development Services office, which administers the program.
