Public Services
The Public Services Program will assist LMI households and communities impacted by Hurricane Ian with essential services to secure economic recovery, housing stability, and resiliency to overcome future disasters. CDBG-DR public services funding will be targeted to support the delivery of essential services to households in areas most impacted by Hurricane Ian. The funding will be distributed to qualified local nonprofit service providers (through a competitive application process) for the following: self-sufficiency services (such as financial literacy, housing search and counseling, and legal services), health and mental health services, job training and placement, and other economic recovery related services such as disaster planning tools for small businesses in disaster prone areas.
