Through these programs, Ventura's neighborhoods are enhanced and stabilized by eliminating blighted conditions, developing affordable housing, preserving and repairing existing housing stock, opportunities, constructing and repairing infrastructure such as roads, intersections, and parking lots, making accessibility improvements, providing shelter for homeless individuals and families, educating communities through training programs and library services, assisting community groups and councils in serving the community, and much more.

In developing viable communities, Ventura utilizes CDBG funds In providing decent housing, establishing and maintaining a suitable living environment, and expanding economic development activities.
The City utilizes HOME funds to increase the supply of decent, affordable housing to low- and very low-income households, while expanding the capacity of nonprofit housing providers and leveraging private sector participation.
Ventura's Affordable Housing Program encompasses rental and for-sale housing units throughout the city that are restricted in cost in order to be affordable to low- and moderate-income families.
