Baltimore County is an entitlement grantee under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), and Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Programs. In compliance with HUD regulations, the County must prepare a Consolidated Plan every five years to assess its affordable housing, community development, economic development, and strategic planning needs. The needs and priorities identified in the Consolidated Plan are addressed annually through the Annual Action Plans which present what specific activities the County will accomplish with CDBG, HOME, and ESG funds.

As part of the planning process, the County is consulting with stakeholders that serve low- and moderate-income persons to gather their needs and priorities for the preparation of the Consolidated Plan. Please, complete this survey to participate.
