applications and makes annual recommendations to the Durham City Council and

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership

The CAC also provides an initial evaluation, and ranks and recommends
applications pertaining to the Continuum of Care Grant Program and other
homeless initiatives to the Homeless Services Advisory Committee (HSAC).
