HUD has collected project profiles from CDBG grantees across the country. Each profile provides a snapshot of a project, detailing place, people and partners and highlights a best practice or innovative use of CDBG funds.
The multimedia scrapbook illustrates the stories of several people who have benefited from a program or project funded with the CDBG program. View the self-guided scrapbook to learn how other grantees have helped individuals and communities and how CDBG funds might be used in your community to achieve similar benefits.
