This program is intended to enhance the mobility for seniors and persons with disabilities by providing funds for programs to serve the special needs of transit-dependent populations beyond traditional public transportation services and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complementary paratransit services. The Concho Valley Economic Development District is committed to this effort. Our partnership with the Concho Valley Transit District will allow us to connect these individuals in our urban and rural communities to more effective transportation services. CVTD and CVEDD work together to enhance and improve these services through the outreach and engagement.

CVCOG is contracted by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) under this fund to provide technical assistance about community development to regional localities that are eligible for the Texas Community Development Block Grant Program (TxCDBG). Regional Services staff aids cities, counties and/or other interested parties with information about related resources and demographic data needed to complete grant applications and other opportunities.

Under this contract, CVCOG staff also administratively assists the CVCOG Regional Review Committee (RRC), which is appointed by the Commissioner of TDA. The RRC develops regional scoring procedures and scores applications in the region.
