NOTICE: HUD Fraud Reporting Letter

ACDS administers several programs on behalf of Anne Arundel County that are funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).  In an effort to provide the recipients of HUD-assisted programs with the best services and funding possible, The Office of Inspector General (OIG) requests that reports of crime, fraud, financial waste and abuse are reported immediately. Fraud negatively impacts communities and individuals who rely on HUD for housing solutions. Together, we have a shared responsibility to report fraudulent activity. For more information and resources, please visit the HUD website here.

Each year, a certain amount of federal funding is available through grant awards to support public services in Anne Arundel County. These include, but are not limited to, after school activities in the County’s Priority Revitalization Communities, supportive housing programs, and services to help low-income citizens improve their economic situation, such as child care and transportation.  Click here to view recently awarded public service grants.

Projects must meet federal funding guidelines. All program rules and goals are identified in the Public Service Activity Recommendation Form, which can be downloaded below.
