Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) YOUR NEEDS ARE OUR PRIORITY!

How do you think CDBG funding should be invested in Perris’

community and neighborhoods?

The city is in the process of developing its Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) and the 2018-2019 Annual Action Plan. The AFH explores disparities in access to renting or purchasing a home, unmet housing needs, lack of integration, and racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty. The Annual Action Plan provides a 1-year roadmap for spending Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds on housing, human services, public infrastructure and community development activities for low and moderate income persons.
