Georgia Department Of Community Affairs

At the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, we provide financial resources and technical assistance to help communities prepare for economic development opportunities and create workforce housing. Our team has a long history of working with local leaders to develop solutions for community issues and to create opportunities for communities to succeed in growing jobs through organic, small-business growth and through the location of economic development prospects. DCA’s strengths lie in our ability to understand a community’s challenges and opportunities and to collaborate with local governments, authorities, state agencies, and non-profits to develop locally-driven solutions. Whether it’s community development grants or housing tax credits, help with planning or recruiting volunteers, everything we do at DCA shares a common goal: helping to build strong, vibrant communities. We do this through programs that include Downtown Development, Community Development Block Grants, Rental Assistance, First Time Homebuyer programs, Affordable Housing Tax Credits, Planning and Quality Growth, and many more.
