City Of Garden Grove

The City of Garden Grove Housing Authority Division, based in Garden Grove, California, is a U.S. local government entity and housing authority that has been registered with the federal government since April 2005 to receive federal awards. As a public housing authority, the division serves as a participating jurisdiction in HUD's affordable housing and community development programs, focusing on expanding the supply of affordable housing and providing supportive services to low- and moderate-income residents in the Garden Grove community.

The Housing Authority Division has established itself as a significant recipient of federal grant funding through multiple HUD programs administered by the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development and the Public and Indian Housing Office. The entity has received recurring formula grants through the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), which funds affordable housing activities including rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing, homebuyer assistance, rental housing acquisition and rehabilitation, and tenant-based rental assistance—most recently awarded $572,007.76 in September 2025 with a completion date of September 2034. Additionally, the division manages Emergency Solutions Grants (CFDA 14.231) to address homelessness through street outreach, emergency shelter operations, essential services, rapid re-housing, and homelessness prevention programs, with a recent $164,974 award in September 2025. The entity also receives Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) for broader community development activities that provide decent housing and suitable living environments for low- and moderate-income persons. Furthermore, the Housing Authority administers the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program, which funds coordinator salaries to implement self-sufficiency services for residents of public housing and housing choice vouchers, promoting employment and wage improvements among participating families. These grant programs represent the core of the division's federal funding portfolio, all administered by HUD's Community Planning and Development office or Public and Indian Housing Office, demonstrating its central role in affordable housing development and homeless services delivery in the Garden Grove area.
