Sustainable Communities Initiative

Purpose
The Sustainable Communities Initiative consists of two grant programs: Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grants and Community Challenge Planning Grants. The Initiative also has a research and evaluation program. Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grants support metropolitan and multijurisdictional planning efforts that integrate housing, land use, economic and workforce development, transportation, and infrastructure investments. Community Challenge Planning Grants foster reform and reduce barriers to achieve affordable, economically vital, and sustainable communities.
