The state CDBG program annually awards Public Services Grants to 18 non-entitlement counties throughout Washington State. These grants support partnerships with regional community action agencies that provide services to address the root causes of poverty and help low-income families and individuals regain or retain self-sufficiency.
Funding availability
Annual award amounts are formula-based on service area population and poverty rate. For the 2026 Public Services Grant program year (July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027), eligible counties will receive the 2026 CDBG Public Services Grant Amounts (PDF).
