NAPERVILLE, Ill. ~ Naperville, Illinois - The City of Naperville has announced that they will be accepting applications for four grant programs to fund projects in 2027. These grants include the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Special Events & Community Arts (SECA), Social Services Grants (SSG), and Opioid Remediation.
The CDBG provides funding for housing, community development, and infrastructure projects. The SECA grant supports cultural and artistic initiatives, while the SSG aids organizations providing essential social services to residents. The Opioid Remediation grant supports efforts to combat the ongoing opioid crisis.
Community Grants Manager Miranda Barfuss expressed excitement about the opportunity for organizations to bring meaningful projects to life. "With more than $2 million available through City of Naperville grant programs, we encourage eligible groups to attend a workshop, explore the funding opportunities and apply," she said.

Eagle St. The SECA workshops are mandatory for applicants and will be held on August 20 at 10 a.m. and August 24 at 6 p.m. An optional pre-application workshop for CDBG, SSG, and Opioid Remediation grants will take place on September 10 at 11 a.m.
