City of Jurupa Valley Public Service Grants

The 2025–2026 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Service Grant, administered by the City of Jurupa Valley, aims to support nonprofit organizations and eligible entities in delivering programs that address critical community needs. The grant is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and focuses on benefiting low- and moderate-income residents. Applications are due by 3:00 PM on January 31, 2025, and must include two original copies and required documentation submitted to City Hall, along with an emailed form. Late or incomplete applications will not be accepted. This grant provides financial assistance for programs in areas such as elderly care, youth services, homelessness support, mental health, disability services, and other public services specific to the needs of Jurupa Valley. Eligible applicants include nonprofit and faith-based organizations with a demonstrated ability to administer federal grant funds and provide impactful services. Programs must align with HUD’s objectives of enhancing living environments, providing affordable housing, or creating economic opportunities while demonstrating measurable outcomes in accessibility, affordability, or community sustainability. Applicants are required to submit detailed program descriptions, including goals, activities, and anticipated impacts. They must also provide supporting data to demonstrate the community need and explain how their program will address service gaps or city objectives. Organizations must outline their experience in delivering similar services, managing grant funds, and ensuring compliance with federal regulations. Required documentation includes financial audits, IRS tax-exempt certification, a detailed budget, and information on staff structure and resource allocation. The grant operates on a reimbursement basis, meaning funds are provided after eligible expenditures are documented. Organizations must report service outcomes, demographic data, and budget utilization to comply with HUD requirements. The application process also requires documentation of beneficiaries’ income levels or presumed beneficiary status, particularly for vulnerable populations such as seniors, homeless individuals, or persons with disabilities. The program emphasizes accountability, with organizations required to meet service targets and provide a final report detailing their achievements. Noncompliance or failure to meet targets could result in repayment or exclusion from future funding opportunities. Organizations interested in applying should carefully review the application guidelines, ensure all requirements are met, and submit complete proposals by the deadline.
