	abstract = {The government of the United States of America through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides grants to state and local governments. Community development efforts are funded by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program as part of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. There are many different types of grant programs associated with a variety of purposes in the United States. However, the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program resulted from the consolidation of seven previously established categorical grant programs for urban areas including: urban renewal, model cities, water and sewer facilities, open spaces, neighborhood facilities, rehabilitation loans, and public facility loans. The consolidation of those seven categorical grants into a single program, the CDBG program, was the result of long deliberations from 1971 to 1974 between the New Federalism and Congress. The CDBG program was finally signed into law by President Ford in 1974. In order to understand how the CDBG Program works to benefit the U.S. citizens, primarily those of low and moderate income, this thesis attempts to analyze the implementation of the program by presenting the City of Reno as a case study.},
