During National Community Development Week (April 1-5, 2024), the City of Dothan and communities across the country will celebrate the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. The goal is to bring renewed awareness to federal investment necessary to sustain CDBG.


 


This federal program helps build a stronger and more resilient community. CDBG funds support such activities as housing rehabilitation, emergency rental assistance, affordable housing developments, public infrastructure projects, small business assistance, and a wide array of public service programming to assist low-income households.


Over the last five years, $2,501,667.00 in CDBG funds have benefitted the Dothan community through various programs and partnerships, such as Alfred Saliba Family Service Center, The Salvation Army, Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center, Dothan Housing, and Wiregrass Habitat for Humanity, to name a few.


 


For 50 years, CDBG has been an important resource for many communities to devise programs and activities to address community and economic development needs. The City of Dothan has received CDBG funding for the last 35 years, which has specifically supported housing rehabilitation, public facilities, infrastructure projects, and public service programming.


The City of Dothan is excited to participate and bring awareness to this important funding program and the impact they have made in our community.


For more information about Community Development Week, please contact Kelly Mierkowski at 334-615-4417.
