The Act aimed to eliminate blight, improve living environments for low and moderate-income families, and promote economic opportunities. It emphasized the need for Federal, State, and local government cooperation and increased private investment in community development activities. The Act also required a report on the study of community development efforts to be submitted to Congress within one year of enactment."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_1_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_1_0035_thumbnail.jpg "The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974")
