Community
Services Block Grant Program
Grantees
of the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) program work to ameliorate
the causes of poverty by assisting low-income individuals with
employment, education and adequate housing. Grantees assist them
to make better use of their income, solve problems that are blocking
the achievement of self-sufficiency and obtain emergency health
services, food, housing and employment-related assistance.
This
is a mandatory formula grant for which States, territories, Native
American Tribes and Tribal organizations are eligible to apply.
