Awards $25.7 Million in Technical Assistance Grants

to Support Local Governments

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recently announced the awarding of $25.7 million in technical assistance grants to support local governments in their efforts to improve housing and community development. The grants are part of HUD’s Technical Assistance and Capacity Building program, which provides funding for local governments to develop and implement strategies to address housing and community development needs.

The grants are designed to help local governments create and implement plans that will ensure the availability of affordable housing, promote economic development, and improve the quality of life in their communities. The funds can be used to hire consultants, develop plans, and implement strategies that will help local governments meet their goals.

The grants are awarded on a competitive basis, with preference given to those local governments that demonstrate a commitment to addressing housing and community development needs. The grantees must also demonstrate that they have the capacity to implement the strategies they propose.

HUD Secretary Ben Carson said, “These grants will help local governments develop and implement strategies to address housing and community development needs in their communities. We are committed to ensuring that all Americans have access to safe, decent, and affordable housing.”

The grants are an important part of HUD’s efforts to support local governments in their efforts to improve housing and community development. The funds will help local governments create and implement plans that will ensure the availability of affordable housing, promote economic development, and improve the quality of life in their communities.

The grants are an important step towards creating a more equitable and just society. By providing local governments with the resources they need to address housing and community development needs, HUD is helping to ensure that all Americans have access to safe, decent, and affordable housing.
