CDBG-DR/MIT Webinar Series: Duplication of Benefits: Understanding and Applying the Requirements

The Office of Block Grant Assistance (OBGA) Disaster Recovery and Special Issues Division (DRSI) hosted a webinar series for Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) and Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) grantees to provide an introduction to each program.

This webinar was a walkthrough of the duplication of benefits (DOB) requirements, including the recently published notice, as well as a "how-to" of completing and documenting the analysis.

This webinar was a part of the CDBG-DR and CDBG-MIT Summer 2020 Webinar Series.
