The Federal Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, provides Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to the City of Rosemead for projects that promote the development of viable urban communities by providing decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic opportunities, particularly for low- and moderate-income persons. The City anticipates receiving an allocation of approximately $584,000 and may use up to 15% ($87,600) of the allocation to provide public services.
The City of Rosemead is currently accepting applications from non-profit organizations requesting funds to provide public services to low- and moderate-income residents. Prioritization will be given to organizations that demonstrate the capacity to implement the program in accordance with the requirements established by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and whose services will help revitalize neighborhoods, promote economic development, and improve community facilities and services in Rosemead.
ELIGIBLE APPLICATIONS: Applications must demonstrate that the service to be provided will principally benefit persons of low- and moderate-income (households earning less than 80% of Los Angeles median income). Examples of eligible services include housing and/or support programs for victims of domestic violence, abused children/youth, the disabled, seniors, or the homeless. Additionally, services addressing unemployment, inadequate healthcare, crime prevention, or substance abuse rehabilitation are eligible. Again, all programs must benefit persons of low and moderate incomes. Applications will also be accepted from organizations seeking to provide fair housing and landlord-tenant services in accordance with HUD requirements.
DEADLINE: All interested applicants must complete and submit an application. Applications will be accepted until 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, January 16, 2025, through email,
[email protected] or at the City of Rosemead, Housing Division, located at 8838 East Valley Boulevard, Rosemead, CA 91770.
