Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)

City of Riverside - Community and Economic Development Department


Agency: Local

GrantWatch ID #141510

Grant Description

Grants to California nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, and governmental entities in eligible areas to assist economically disadvantaged residents. Funding is intended for capital improvement projects, public services, and economic development. Proposed projects must take place in the City of Riverside.

Federal regulations require that CDBG funds be used for eligible activities that meet one of three national objectives:

  • Benefit low- and moderate-income persons;
  • Aid in the prevention or elimination of slum or blight; and
  • Meet a need having a particular urgency

The City of Riverside uses its annual CDBG allocation to fund projects and activities undertaken by City Departments and Community-based non-profit agencies specifically to address the housing and community development needs of low and moderate income persons in the City of Riverside. CDBG funding can be used for a variety of activities to meet HUD statutory goals including but not limited to:

  • Decent housing
  • A suitable living environment
  • Expanded economic opportunities

Under HUD CDBG regulations, at least 51% of those benefiting from CDBG funded activities must be low and moderate-income persons. Agencies and organizations receiving CDBG funding must be able to document that the individuals or households it serves fall within the HUD income limits.
