Con Plan Action Guide now Available

A new book, HUD’s Consolidated Plan: An Action Guide for Involving Low Income Communities, is available from the Center for Community Change (CCC) as aid to understanding and working through HUD’s Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) process. This 100-page book is written by Ed Gramlich in easily readable language for use by busy low-income community leaders and advocates. The material is presented in sections so that readers can pick out what they need to know at any point in the ConPlan process.

The Action Guide describes the five stages of the ConPlan process and explains what must be in each ConPlan. There is also a chapter focusing on the details of the Annual Action Plan. The Action Guide emphasizes features of the law and regulations that suggest that low-income people and their needs should get the highest priorities in the ConPlan. Another emphasis is the public participation process, including a "model" public participation plan.

For those unsure if they want a large reference guide, an 18-page outline is also available.

Copies of the Action Guide are available for free to low-income community groups and advocates. For others, copies are available for $18 (includes shipping). Bulk discounts are also available.
