3. Grants Administration to Host Public Meetings on U.S. HUD Funding

The City of Tulsa is seeking to understand community needs to help inform decisions on the use of funds received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership (HOME), Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) programs.

Community feedback will provide the City with unique perspectives as it determines priority needs and establishes goals for its Consolidated Plan 2025-2029 and Annual Action Plan 2025, as well as its updated Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing.

These plans will guide how HUD funds are invested in Tulsa.

Four community meetings are scheduled, all of which are open to the public.  The community meetings will facilitate discussions around community needs, existing resources, and ways we can address gaps for our most vulnerable residents.

Meetings are available on the following days and times:

Monday, August 19, at 5 p.m.

1520 N. Hartford Ave, Tulsa, OK 74106

This survey will close on Monday, August 26. A Spanish translation is included at the link provided.

U.S. HUD Funding & Path to Home

HUD funding is a key component of the various programs and work that is underway to address the need for additional housing in Tulsa. The City of Tulsa has launched the Path to Home initiative for this type of work that makes all efforts on housing, homelessness, and mental health in Tulsa more easily recognizable and representative of the cumulative work taking place in this space.
