Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program

The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is a federal grant program administered by the U.S Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD). It provides annual grants on a formula basis to entitled cities and counties based on population data from the U.S. Census Bureau.

The Town of Hilton Head Island became a CDBG entitlement community in 2015.

• The annual amount of CDBG entitlement funding fluctuates each year of program participation and is calculated by HUD.
• Funds are to be used to benefit low-and-moderate income persons, based on HUD guidelines and U.S. Census data.
• The program supports community development activities that may address such needs as public improvements, public facilities, housing activities, other real property improvements, and public services.
