Louisiana Division of Administration
Housed within the Louisiana Division of Administration, the Office of Community Development administers federal funding through disaster recovery programs, which help storm-affected communities rebuild and strengthen resilience in housing, infrastructure, economic development and mitigation, as well as through local government assistance programs that provide grants for high-priority rehabilitation, construction and improvement projects throughout Louisiana. To this end, LOCD leverages established statewide partnerships and proven best practices to help Louisiana communities recover, rebuild and implement long-term resilience planning, while also supporting critical local projects that improve our infrastructure and expand opportunities statewide.
CWEF Emergency Set Aside
The Community Water Enrichment Fund (CWEF) was established during the 2008 Louisiana Regular Legislative Session through HB 926 (Act 513). The program provides funding to units of local government for the rehabilitation, improvement and construction of community water system projects to ensure access to safe, clean drinking water.
A total of $500,000 has been set aside in the CWEF for projects determined to be of an emergency nature that affect the health and safety of residents. The ceiling amount for an individual emergency grant is $300,000. The emergency situation must have occurred within three months of application submission. Applications are accepted on a continuous basis. Local governments interested in applying for these emergency funds should first contact LOCD to discuss the proposed project. If LOCD determines the proposed project meets program intent, the local government will be invited to submit an application.

Water Sector Program - Phase 2
Louisiana dedicated $750 million from its American Rescue Plan Act Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund allocation to establish the Water Sector Program. The state later created a Phase II Subfund to manage new grants under the program, as well as an Emergency Subfund to administer funding for urgent needs. The state Legislature appropriated $140 million for the Phase II Subfund and $10 million for the Emergency Subfund. The Water Sector Program was created to provide grant funding for repairs, improvements and consolidation of community water and sewer systems around the state. The following are types of projects that are eligible under this program:

The Emergency Subfund is only available to provide emergency grant funding to address or mitigate an emergency related to a community water system or community sewer system. Commission priorities for this subfund are systems taken into receivership as discussed in Louisiana Revised Statute 40:5.9.C. In such case, LDH will provide OCD-LGA with the system name and the name of the proposed receiver. OCD-LGA will work with the receiver to get access to the online portal or otherwise provide instruction on how to apply. The request for funding by the receiver will provide general information regarding the system as well as a cost estimate for their services to develop the improvement plan due to LDH within 90 days of the receivership appointment.

CDBG Clearance Program
The Clearance Program provides CDBG funding to Louisiana communities for the demolition and removal of blighted residential or commercial structures that threaten public safety, health or welfare. Through a competitive selection process, non-entitlement municipalities and parishes may access grants ranging from $150,000 to $750,000 to address dangerous properties on private land. This program helps communities eliminate slum and blight conditions, improve neighborhood safety, and create opportunities for future redevelopment where deteriorated structures pose risks to residents.

Recovery Housing Program
The Recovery Housing Program (RHP) provides funding for states and the District of Columbia to provide stable, transitional housing for individuals in recovery from a substance use disorder. The funding covers a period of not more than two years or until the individual secures permanent housing, whichever is earlier. Housing stability is fundamental to recovery and a critical factor contributing to positive outcomes. For many individuals, achieving and maintaining recovery from a substance use disorder is hindered by a lack of safe, affordable housing that is supportive of recovery. Recovery housing provides support to individuals as they initiate, stabilize, and maintain long-term recovery in the community. This funding would help the residents secure housing during their recovery process, which would be beneficial to the long-term recovery process.
Site Development Grants
With funding approved through the legislature for the Rural Economic Opportunity Fund, TNECD is investing in site development grants. This grant opportunity will improve many of TNECD’s nationally recognized Select Tennessee certified sites and prepare other sites to achieve certification.

SM27 Supplemental Measles Outbreak Competitive Solicitation
This funding will support rapid, large-scale response, mitigation, and preparedness activities for measles and other vaccine preventable diseases (VPDs) in communities identified as at risk due to historically low or suspected low vaccination coverage. Many of these communities face unique challenges to prevention and mitigation efforts, including limited engagement with government institutions, language barriers, and rural isolation. The funding will enable jurisdictions to identify high-risk areas and populations, address gaps in vaccination coverage, and apply community-level expertise to strengthen outbreak prevention and readiness.
Supported activities will include increasing vaccine access, improving vaccine confidence and demand, and enhancing capacity for swift vaccination response and measles preparedness, with the overarching goal of reducing morbidity and mortality from measles and other VPDs among populations with persistently low vaccination uptake.
Funding
ODH plans to fund a maximum of 37 applicants. Applicants can apply for $32,500. Total funding for SM27 subgrants is expected to be approximately $1.2 million dollars, dependent on federal funds. Funds originate from federal funding source.
No subgrant award will be issued for less than $30,000. The minimum amount is exclusive of any required matching amounts and represents only ODH funds sub-granted. Applications submitted for less than the minimum amount will not be considered for review.
