The County is holding a series of public forums at county libraries, each one hour, including these East County locations, to hear your ideas:

Each year the county receives millions of dollars in federal funds for homeless, housing and community development that can be invested in low and moderate income communities on projects such as affordable housing, libraries, parks, homeless prevention, and services for seniors. Through the county's Live Well initiative, the Health and Human Services Agency and Housing and Community Development Services are reaching out for ideas on how to spend Commuity Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Invsetment Partnerships (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and Housing Opporutnities for Personns with AIDS (HOPWA) funding.
