The City of San Diego will administer more than $43.5 million in federal grants to local organizations and nonprofits that improve living environments, expand economic opportunity and increase housing opportunities in low- and moderate-income communities after the City Council approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 Annual Action Plan today.
The FY2026 Annual Action Plan lays out how the City will distribute this year’s more than $12.1 million Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), $30.3 million HOME Investment Partnerships Program and $990,775 Emergency Solutions Grant funds.
CDBG funds aim to increase the access and availability of affordable housing, expand economic opportunity by supporting local entrepreneurs and small businesses and invest in nonprofit facilities. They also support public services such as meal deliveries, health services, apprenticeship and workforce training, and senior and youth services.
The action plan breaks down allocations to more than 20 nonprofits such as Reality Changers, Kitchens for Good, Rise Up Industries, Monarch School, Serving Seniors, Somali Family Service of San Diego, Partnership for Environmental Progress and City Heights Community Development Corporation. Organizations had to go through a competitive process to apply for the funding.
