About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded $79.273 million to the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development on October 1, 2025 under the Community Services Block Grant (CFDA 93.569), with performance through September 30, 2027. DCED administers CSBG funding as a state pass-through entity, distributing resources to 42 Community Action Agencies and related nonprofits across Pennsylvania to reduce poverty, support low-income families transitioning toward self-sufficiency, and strengthen community-based service delivery in rural and urban areas.

The grant funds a network of sub-recipients delivering direct anti-poverty services across multiple program categories: emergency assistance for housing, utilities, and basic needs; weatherization and energy efficiency improvements; food security and nutrition programs; job training, skills development, and employment placement; case management and financial literacy; early childhood education and family support; homeless prevention and housing stabilization; and veterans services. Major sub-recipients include Community Action Lehigh Valley (food assistance and housing security), Community Progress Council Inc. (early childhood education and nutrition services), Indiana County Community Action Program (homelessness prevention and transitional housing), Pathstone Corporation (workforce development and family self-sufficiency), Schuylkill Community Action (housing and energy assistance), Allegheny County Department of Human Services (economic security across five pillars), Community Action Partnership of Lancaster County (family support and homelessness services), and dozens of additional community action agencies, nonprofits, and county governments throughout Pennsylvania delivering targeted services aligned with local needs assessments.

CSBG as a formula grant distributes funds to states based on statutory allocation; Pennsylvania's award reflects the state's proportional share. The funding flows to eligible entities through a state-managed approval process requiring public consultation on state plans reviewed and approved September 1–30 annually, with quarterly allocations beginning October 1.
