The City of Simi Valley receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds each year from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

These funds help the City meet local housing and community needs. They also support services for Simi Valley residents.

The City uses a five-year plan, called the Consolidated Plan, to set funding priorities. The current plan was approved by the City Council on May 5, 2025.

How the Application Process Works

Organizations that serve low- and moderate-income Simi Valley residents may apply for funding.

The process is open to the public.
Individuals cannot apply directly.
The grant cycle usually begins in the fall with a required Application Workshop.
Applications are reviewed during public hearings in the spring.

All approved projects are listed in the Annual Action Plan, which is based on the Consolidated Plan.

Each year, the City reports program results in the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). This report is submitted to HUD each September.
