In honor of National Community Development week (April 6 - April 10), we're excited to share a new podcast episode highlighting the impact of community development programs right here in Washington county. We're also proud to share that Sherwood City Council President Kim Young is featured in the conversation!
The episode explores how programs like Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), HOME, and Emergency Solutions Grants help strengthen local neighborhoods by supporting housing rehabilitation, emergency rental assistance to small businesses, and essential community services.
We think it's well worth a listen - check it out here:
