U.S. government grants have been a critical tool for helping communities across the country to manage sudden change. The Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Community Development Block GrantDisaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program has been particularly impactful, distributing funds to hard-hit communities in 24 states and territories.

Guidehouse experts partner with those communities to help them navigate the grant management process—from application intake to reporting and compliance—so that they can deliver the best possible outcomes to affected residents, businesses, and institutions.
