Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs
The State of Indiana is eligible to receive grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to help address housing and community development needs. These grant funds include the: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS (HOPWA) and the National Housing Trust Fund (HTF). The dollars are primarily meant for investment in the State's less populated and rural areas (“non-entitlement” areas), which do not receive such funds directly from HUD.
The Indiana Office of Rural and Community Affairs (OCRA) receives and administers CDBG. The Indiana Housing & Community Development Authority (IHCDA) receives and administers HOME, ESG, HOPWA, and HTF. As a condition for receiving HUD block grant funding, the State must complete a five-year strategic plan called a Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development (Consolidated Plan).
CDBG Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program
Indiana’s state-administered Community Development Block Grant program fosters growth and resilience in rural cities and towns by investing in local initiatives that encourage communities to build, strengthen and thrive. The Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA) seek applications from local units of government for programs funded through the State Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Eligible local units of government are counties, cities, or incorporated towns not located within an entitlement community. Unincorporated areas must apply through the county in which they are located. OCRA established a maximum grant award for Owner Occupied Rehabilitation as outlined below to fund and create local owner-occupied rehabilitation programs.
The goal of the State CDBG program is to encourage communities with eligible populations to focus on longterm community development. Competitive projects must demonstrate the following: They meet a National Objective of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended; The project addresses the long-term planning and development efforts of the community; The funds granted will have a significant impact on the overall project; The community has demonstrated a strong commitment to the project and its sustainability
Transportation-Related Research & Workforce Development Grant Program (TRWD)
Arkansas Act 705 of 2017 and Act 884 of 2021 authorized the Transportation-Related Research and Workforce Development Grant Program (TRWD). Per legislation, $500,000 is available per year. The purpose of this program is to provide funding for projects that conduct transportation-related research or workforce development. Transportation-related research is defined as the systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions to provide resilient and sustainable logistics, processes, materials, and methods to ensure cost-effectiveness and the furtherance of education and economic development concerning all forms of transportation, including without limitation rail, public transportation, aviation, and waterborne transportation. Workforce development is defined as industry training, apprenticeship, and educational programs that foster skills required for transportation-related personnel development. Project sponsors apply for TRWD funds through a competitive process, with the applications being reviewed and scored by the TRWD Committee.
