The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides federal funding to states through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Wisconsin uses this federal funding to provide affordable housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic opportunities for persons with low and moderate incomes.
The program assists income eligible low- to moderate income households with housing rehabilitation, conversion, and homebuyer activities.
Further details will be posted once the award and administrator contracts are finalized.
