Csbg-2026 - community services block grant

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded the Nevada Department of Human Services $8.421533 million under the Community Services Block Grant (CFDA 93.569) on October 1, 2025, for the period through September 30, 2027. The award funds assistance to low-income populations in Nevada through a network of local entities and community organizations operating in rural and urban areas.

Three sub-recipients deliver direct services under the grant. Lincoln County Nevada, doing business as Acorn, continues serving the low-income population with food services. Churchill County increases awareness of resources available for vulnerable populations. Frontier Community Coalition alleviates poverty through housing, utility, and food assistance across Humboldt, Lander, Mineral, and Pershing counties in rural Nevada.

The CSBG program aims to reduce poverty, revitalize low-income communities, and empower low-income families and individuals to become fully self-sufficient. Funded activities include services designed to help low-income participants secure and retain meaningful employment, attain adequate education, make better use of available income, obtain and maintain adequate housing and suitable living environments, and obtain emergency assistance through loans or grants to meet immediate and urgent individual and family needs including health services, nutritious food, housing, and employment-related assistance.

Place of performance is Nevada.
