City of Jacksonville / U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

Available Home Repair

About This Program

The City of Jacksonville receives annual Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding from HUD to support low- and moderate-income residents in Duval County. Housing-related CDBG funds flow through programs like the Emergency Repair Program and Limited Repair Program, and nonprofits may apply to deliver housing rehabilitation services. Residents access CDBG benefits through the City's Housing Services programs rather than applying to CDBG directly.

Individuals access CDBG through city-administered programs (ERP, LRP); nonprofits can apply during the annual Universal Application cycle
