The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program was established by the federal Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (Act). Administered nationally by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Act combined eight existing categorical programs into a single block grant program. In 1981, Congress amended the Act to allow states to directly administer the block grant for small cities. At the designation of the Governor, the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs assumed operation of the State of Illinois Community Development Block Grant -- Small Cities Program in the same year. The Illinois Block grant program is known as the Community Development Assistance Program (CDAP). Through this program, funds are available to assist Illinois communities meet their greatest economic and community development needs, with an emphasis upon helping persons of low-to-moderate income.

In the fall of 2003, Governor Blagojevich unveiled Opportunity Returns, a regional economic development plan that is the most aggressive, comprehensive approach to creating jobs in Illinois' history. The Governor divided the state into 10 economic development regions -- finding areas with common economic strengths and needs, and is developing plans for each region that include specific actions to make these regions more accessible and more attractive to business. This grassroots effort is a product of significant outreach with economic development leaders, local elected officials and business and community leaders. Each Opportunity Returns economic development plan is designed to be flexible and effective and tailored to deliver real results that local businesses will see, feel, and hopefully profit from.

The plan outlines the economic development priorities for the Central region, which consists of Cass, Christian, Greene, Logan, Macon, Macoupin, Menard, Montgomery, Morgan, Sangamon, Scott, and Shelby Counties. Governor Blagojevich understands that no one knows a community better than the people who live and work in it.
