2025-2026 Annual Action Plan Public Hearing

The Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) is developing an Annual Action Plan (AAP) to identify the prioritized needs and the proposed use of available resources to address those needs for the upcoming fiscal year spanning July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026. The anticipated federal housing and community development resources include the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), National Housing Trust Fund, Emergency Solution Grant (ESG), and Housing for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA).

A draft of the 2025-2026 AAP will be made available for public comment starting March 27, 2025 at https://www.dhcd.virginia.gov/consolidated-plan. Written comments can be submitted to the following email address: feedback.ppc@dhcd.virginia.gov; DHCD will accept, consider, and respond to all comments received through April 25, 2025.

DHCD will hold a virtual public hearing on April 2, 2025 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM (ET). This event will outline the 2025-2026 AAP and accept stakeholder input on anticipated needs, statewide goals, use of resources, and methods of distribution. Instructions to join via video conferencing will be emailed to online registrants approximately 24 hours prior to the event.

Any person with a disability requiring special accommodations to attend the public input session should notify DHCD at (804) 624-9215. Every effort will be made to provide reasonable accommodations.
