PY2026 Annual Action Plan Community Needs Survey

Dear Community Member, 

Harris County Housing & Community Development (HCHCD) is seeking your input on how to use federal funds granted to us by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) grant program. We are conducting a General Public Survey to gather information from individuals and service providers like you to help shape the goals and objectives of our PY2026 Annual Action Plan. 

Your input is crucial in determining the activities that will be funded in the areas of Housing, Infrastructure, Neighborhood Services and Facilities, and Community and Homeless Services. We would greatly appreciate your help and information, and please feel free to share the survey to others you know. 

The survey will ask about your opinions and experiences with these programs and some personal questions such as your age, income, race/ethnicity, and housing situation. All responses will be kept confidential and used only to develop the Annual Action Plan and future programs. The survey will be open from February 18, 2026, to March 23, 2026. 

Thank you in advance for taking the time to participate in this critical survey. Your feedback will help shape the future of our community.
