The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Administration for Children and Families awarded a $15,643,549.00 Community Services Block Grant (CFDA 93.569) to the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. This formula grant, effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2026, will support the delivery of a comprehensive range of social services and economic development initiatives to reduce poverty and empower low-income individuals and communities across Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Department of Commerce, as the lead state agency, will distribute sub-awards to local community action agencies, non-profit organizations, and other neighborhood-based entities to implement targeted poverty reduction strategies. These strategies may include providing rental assistance, supporting low-income housing rehabilitation, conducting energy audits, offering job training, assisting homeless populations, and funding community development projects. The grant program aims to address multiple dimensions of poverty by supporting employment, education, housing, healthcare, and other critical support mechanisms that help individuals and families achieve economic self-sufficiency.
