Rhode Island’s November CDBG round runs through municipal applicants

Staff Writer · 2026-10-14

Rhode Island’s Executive Office of Housing lists November 10, 2026, as the closing date for its current competitive Community Development Block Grant round. The state program serves 33 municipalities; six cities administer their own federal allocations.

State awards go to local governments for eligible community projects, primarily benefiting residents with low or moderate incomes. Municipalities may arrange eligible activities with nonprofits and other entities. An organization seeking support should work with its municipal CDBG administrator rather than assume it can apply directly to the state.

Cranston, East Providence, Pawtucket, Providence, Warwick and Woonsocket operate separate HUD-funded programs. A deadline for the state’s competitive round therefore does not establish a filing deadline for every project in those cities.

The state links applicants to eCivis/EUNA and evaluates proposals against federal requirements and state priorities. Its page gives no cutoff hour or timezone for November 10. Local proposal and hearing schedules may come earlier, so confirm both the municipality’s process and the state submission requirements.

The page lists affordable-housing and housing-rehabilitation applications separately on a rolling basis. Those routes should not be treated as interchangeable with the competitive round.
