Study on Colonias: Improving Equity and Access through Arizona's State CDBG Set-Aside Program
Funded by the Department of Urban Planning at UCLA and in coordination with Southwest Fair Housing Council (SWFHC). The aim of the report was to analyze and evaluate the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Set-Aside program implemented in Arizona, specifically focusing on Colonias communities along the U.S.-Mexico border. The study tracks demographic changes, assess the living conditions and needs of Colonias residents, and provide recommendations to improve the use of CDBG Set-Aside funding.
