The 2017 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Guidelines Training will be held on
Tuesday, February 28th in Frankfort, Kentucky at the Kentucky Association of Counties Training Room, 400 Englewood Drive.
This training will provide general information about the CDBG Program and the application process as well as specific directions on how to apply. Please find the tentative
agenda for the day attached. Registration will begin at
