About the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery Program

Congress appropriates these funds in response to presidentially declared disasters. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) allocates the appropriated funding to states and entitlement communities based on unmet needs.

DCA is currently administering three separate allocations: 2017 CDBG-DR, CDBG Mitigation, and 2018 CDBG-DR. Two tornadoes touched down in Southwest Georgia (DR 4294 and DR 4297) and Hurricane Irma (DR 4338) affected the coast in 2017. In 2018, Hurricane Michael (DR 4400) ravaged Southwest Georgia again. Additional information pertaining to the individual allocations can be found on this page.

Attention

The State of Georgia is dedicated to the prevention of fraud, waste and abuse. All suspected cases of fraud will be taken seriously and complaints will be reported to the Georgia Office of the Inspector General for further investigation (866-435-7644).
