Mayor Glenn D. Cunningham speaks during the 30th Anniversary celebration of the federal Community Development Block Grant program at the Mary McLeod Bethune Community Center as HUD’s New Jersey Field Director Diane Johnson listens. The ceremony, held in April during Community Development Week, honored several Jersey City non-profit organizations that utilize Community Development Block Grant funds. Created in 1974 as part of the Fair Housing Act, the Community Development Block Grant program assists communities by providing the necessary funds to help build affordable housing. They also can be used by non-profits to provide many of the social services required to make a community a strong and vital place to live, such as child care, drug and alcohol counseling, and job training. Mayor Cunningham praised the work of the city’s Community Development staff, who each day are helping to get even more programs off the ground through CDBG funding.
