Section 3 Presentation to Local Community for Grant No. CFC21-0418 awarded by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) under the Texas Community Development Block Grant (TxCDBG) Program Colonia Funds: Construction, as required by TDA.

The Texas Department of Agriculture requires that all grantees of Texas Community Development Block Grant (TxCDBG) funds demonstrate compliance with all state and federal requirements to ensure equal opportunity and access to all benefits derived from the TxCDBG Program. Taking steps to provide opportunities, to the greatest extent feasible, to low- and very low- income (Section 3) residents and businesses in employment, training and contracting for construction contracts is one of those requirements. In order to facilitate general employment opportunities information for Section 3 workers, the Grant Recipient must present the Section 3 goals of the TxCDBG Program. Additionally, the presentation slides will also be available to the community on the Hidalgo County official website under the Urban County Program department link.
