CDBG Best Practices

The Office of Block Grant Assistance (OBGA) sponsored a webinar series for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) grantees on best practices in CDBG program administration. HUD identified a diverse group of communities across the country that have implemented exceptional models that other grantees may be able to replicate. These best practices educate grantees on replicable best practices that they may implement in their programs.

Training Objectives

  • Learn from program administrators in diverse communities across the country about best practices and unique strategies
  • Gain understanding of effective, replicable, best practice models to implement in their CDBG programs
