City Opens Registration for Community Development Block Grant Workshops
The City of Toledo is now accepting registrations for its upcoming Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) workshops, which will provide organizations with guidance on the application process and requirements for seeking CDBG funding.
The federally funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program supports eligible projects that address community needs, strengthen Toledo’s neighborhoods, improve housing and public facilities, provide essential services, and create economic opportunities for Toledo residents.
All workshops will be held at the Toledo Lucas County Public Library’s Main Library in the McMaster Room on the second floor. Organizations interested in applying for CDBG funding are encouraged to register for the upcoming workshops.
