All CDBG-funded public service programs and HOME-funded <br />affordable housing projects will be available to eligible persons citywide.

The entitlement funds will help address <br />these community needs. <br />Discussion <br />The City of Santa Ana does not use specific target areas to guide the allocation of funding.
