NEW PUBLICATION: NCHH created this tool for technical assistance, "Using Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funding to Improve Indoor Air Quality," to support local and state leaders (e.g., governments, agencies, programs, advocates, et cetera) in understanding how CDBG funding can be used to accomplish housing repairs designed to create healthier, safer indoor environments. We use indoor air quality (IAQ) as an example of a housing-based environmental subject that CDBG funding can help to address throughout this brief, but the background and strategies could be applied across a range of housing health and safety hazards depending on your community priorities. We present opportunities, real-world examples, and discussion points to help communities consider how their CDBG programs can integrate priority IAQ solutions.

What's the Role of Community-Based Organizations in Local Development? Community-based organizations (CBOs) are vital for local development, addressing local needs and driving positive change. CBOs focus on healthcare, education, housing, and environmental protection, developing effective, sustainable solutions. They involve residents in decision-making and project implementation, fostering community ownership. CBOs offer services like job training, healthcare, and education, improving overall quality of life. They build trust and cooperation, creating networks that support community initiatives. CBOs support economic development by creating jobs and promoting local businesses, enhancing economic stability. They advocate for community interests, influencing policies and decisions for positive change. CBOs play a crucial role in local development, addressing needs and driving sustainable change.
