Attention San Bernardino County Residents

How would you invest $57 million in your community over the next five years?

San Bernardino County has begun the planning process for the following documents:

1) 2025-2030 Consolidated Plan;

2) 2025-2026 Annual Action Plan; and

3) Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice.

These documents, required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, are related to receiving federal grant funds through the Community Development Block Grant, Emergency Solutions Grant, and HOME Investment Partnerships programs.

A key component of preparing these documents involves hearing from members of the public on what community needs to prioritize and what fair housing barriers are impacting your communities.

We need your help determining how best to spend federal funds to invest in San Bernardino County communities. Together, we can prioritize key areas such as affordable housing, sustainability, homeless shelters, infrastructure, and job opportunities.

Join us for a community meeting and share your insights. Listed below are the community meetings available for your participation.
