CARES Act, Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG-CV)

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law. The act provides additional ESG funding intended to prepare for, prevent and respond to COVID-19. MHDC is no longer accepting applications for ESG-CV funding.

In September, 2022, the state of Missouri was awarded an additional allocation of ESG-CV funds. These funds were made available through the 2023 ESG Program funding approvals. Please visit the ESG page for information on FY2023 funding. 

Please visit the MHDC NOFA Page for ESG-CV NOFA, Allocation Plan, and funding Approvals.
