National Community Development Week - Dayton, Ohio

This year marks the 39th anniversary of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Through CDBG, economic development, housing, infrastructure and public service projects have been possible throughout the Miami Valley region.  Recognizing it is critical the President and members of Congress understand the impact the CDBG program has on our community’s abilities to address the needs of our citizens, area community development leaders and practitioners were invited to Carillon Park in Dayton, Ohio to join in the Community Development Week celebration. 

Dan Foley, Montgomery County Commissioner, in his welcome thanked attendees for their continued dedication to the CDBG program striving to maintain a good quality of life for area residents in the respected communities.  

Keynote speaker for the morning was Gene Krebs, political writer, commentator and former legislator. To view his presentation -   Click here
