Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG)

The CDBG program was authorized by Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 and provides annual grants, on a formula basis, to implement a wide variety of housing, community and economic development activities. The primary objective of the CDBG program is to develop viable communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low- and moderate-income.

  Local nonprofit organizations, participating Gwinnett County cities, Gwinnett County departments, and local public housing authorities are all encouraged to participate in the annual grant competition. The County evaluates proposed activities based on an assessment of its local needs, goals, priority objectives, and benefits to the community.

HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME)

The HOME Program, created through the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, provides grant funds to help create and preserve affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households.

Funding is awarded by the County to nonprofit and government organizations to create and preserve affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households.
 

Funds may be used to construct, reconstruct, and rehabilitate single-family and multi-family housing. Down payment assistance is also available to qualifying low- and moderate-income first-time homebuyers. 

Emergency Solutions Grants Program (ESG)

Formerly the Emergency Shelter Grant, the ESG Program was created through the passage of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act of 1987. ESG funds must be used to provide shelter and supportive services to homeless persons or to provide homelessness prevention activities for low- and moderate-income persons who are in danger of becoming homeless. Public agencies or nonprofit organizations currently providing services for individuals/families in Gwinnett County who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, or have a recent history (within the last five years) of providing similar services are encouraged to apply for ESG funding.

The CAPER is made available for public review and comment for a 15-day period prior to submission to HUD. At least one public hearing is held by the County during the 15-day public comment period.
