During 2022, St. Louis County distributed $1.9 million in federal grant money to communities and non-profit organizations in St. Louis County outside the City of Duluth. The City of Duluth receives separate funding. Fiscal Year 2022 CDBG funds helped cover costs for renovations at the Chisholm, Cook, and Eveleth HRA's; site acquisition for North SLC Habitat for Humanity; accessibility improvements to the Buhl/Kinney Senior Center; water and sewer infrastructure in ten communities; meals programs at the Salvation Army located in Hibbing and Virginia; and support services for low-income and homeless people through nine non-profit organizations.
