Community Development Department

Welcome to the City of Kenner Department of Community Development

The City of Kenner Department of Community Development is committed to improving the quality of life for all Kenner residents by managing and distributing federal, state, and local funding for essential community services and programs. Through strategic partnerships with other city departments, government agencies, non-profits, and private organizations, our department works to build a stronger, more inclusive Kenner.

The department administers a variety of grants, including funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Jefferson Parish HOME Consortium, and additional state and local grant programs. These funds support capital improvements, social services, and housing initiatives that directly benefit residents throughout the city. 

What We Offer

We specialize in delivering impactful housing assistance, youth education programs, homeless services, and neighborhood revitalization projects. Our initiatives are designed to address the needs of low- and very low-income families and underserved communities, helping to reduce poverty and promote long-term community sustainability.
