Charleston County is in the process of developing a Consolidated Plan that will establish housing and community development goals and priorities for its annual grant allocations from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The Consolidated Plan will cover the program years of 2026-2030. We invite you to assist the County in establishing community needs and priorities to help guide future programs and investments.
