The federal Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program provides assistance to Nebraska communities recovering from disasters. To help mitigate damages from flooding and other weather-related incidents in 2019, Federal monies have been allocated to be administered throughout some of the hardest hit areas in Nebraska.
Working with various funding sources, including federal programs, the Nebraska Department of Economic Development will be awarding communities to assist their disaster recovery efforts. Long-term monitoring of the awards helps ensure communities use funding to make the most impact.
