A
Guide To State Grant Programs
There are
hundreds of grants available through dozens of state agencies. Unless
you have a map, you may find it difficult to locate information on them.
Does my community qualify? Are there matching funds required? Is it a
state or federal program?
Grants come
and go as funding streams, policies and Administration change. The grant
and loan programs will likely change from year to year. Because of the
large number of grants offered and because the list does change, only
a handful of examples are listed below each agency. More complete and
current information is located at each agency's website.
