MSHDA's Neighborhood Development Division (NDD) allocates Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds through the MI Neighborhood Program. This grant funding is provided to non-entitlement units of general local government—including cities, towns, townships, villages, and counties that do not receive direct CDBG allocations from HUD (see CDBG Municipalities Map to determine eligibility)
Letter of Intent Process to Reserve MI Neighborhood CDBG Funds – 4th Round
MSHDA will begin its fourth round of accepting LOI for funding from eligible Units of General Local Government (UGLG) on February 4, 2026, for proposals that meet the housing objectives of the CDBG Program. These letters will be used to establish eligible projects. Letters will be reviewed on a first come first served basis until available funds are fully designated for projects. After submission, you may be contacted for a consultation prior to reservation of funds.
If approved, grantees will receive a designation memo reserving funds contingent upon completion of a formal application outlining CDBG compliance steps. Applications are provided upon LOI approval.
Submission guidance, forms, available funding amounts by region, and the online submission link will be provided on this webpage on or before February 4, 2026.

Nonprofit CBDO Interest Form Now Open – Deadline January 5, 2025
MSHDA is accepting Letters of Interest from nonprofit organizations interested in serving as Community‑Based Development Organizations (CBDOs) under the CDBG Program. To help us gauge interest and connect potential partners with UGLGs, nonprofits are invited to complete the Letter of Interest Form. Submissions are due Thursday, January 5, 2025.
In MSHDA’s program, “CBDO” refers to nonprofits eligible to partner with local governments as special subrecipients or developers to carry out eligible housing activities in non‑entitlement areas.
Nonprofits may work with one or more local governments to implement projects within defined target areas supported by a local neighborhood revitalization plan. Organizations of any size or service area—neighborhood‑based, jurisdiction‑wide, regional, or multi‑jurisdictional—are encouraged to review the updated CBDO Certification Requirements for full details on eligibility, roles, and requirements.
