Community Development Block Grant Housing The Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) is a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program designed to help communities provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expand economic opportunities for the state’s low- and moderate-income (LMI) residents. The State of Montana receives an annual allocation of federal funds from HUD for CDBG grants and program administration through the Montana Department of Commerce (Commerce). The CDBG program helps local governments complete activities such as drinking water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, community facilities (nursing homes or Head Start centers, for example), job creation and retention, and affordable housing development and rehabilitation. The State of Montana administers the CDBG Program through four distinct grant opportunities – planning; community and public facilities; economic development; and affordable housing development and rehabilitation. To better serve LMI households across the state, Commerce established the Housing Stabilization Program to provide assistance with single family housing rehabilitation activities. Housing Stabilization Program (HSP) Grants (MT) Successful applicants will qualify to access the CDBG HSP pool of funds for a period of five years. During that time, local governments are eligible to receive funds for construction or rehabilitation of owner-occupied or rental units that benefit low- to moderate-income households.
