The City of Houston’s Housing and Community Development Department (HCDD) needs your input about investing approximately $40 million in federal entitlement grants to improve Houston neighborhoods and quality of life for low- and moderate-income families over the next year. These federal grants include the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Housing Opportunities for Persons with HIV/AIDS (HOPWA), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG).
