What types of programs are funded by Community Development Block Grants?
Funded programs are those that serve 51 percent low- and moderate-income neighborhoods and residents within the City of Inglewood. The majority of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) funds are used in acquisition, construction, engineering, planning, and economic development projects. However, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allows 15 percent of the City's entitlement to go toward funding "public service" (social services) programs.

Such "public service" funded programs include:
- Family Violence/Crime Intervention and Prevention Services
- Job Training, Homeless Services
- Juvenile Diversion/Youth Services
- Persons With Hiv/Aids Services
- Senior Citizen Services
- Transitional Living Services

(Note: This list is not inclusive of all types of services that may be eligible under the CDBG Program.)
