I frequently receive requests for information about applying for federal grants. These grant programs are a great way to access additional funds for schools, cities, and non-profit organizations. However, finding accurate information about federal programs can be challenging.

If you are interested in learning about grant funding that may be available for your program, please review the grant information compiled by the Congressional Research Service.  This webpage includes numerous links to other sites with additional information on federal grant programs.  If you would like additional assistance in applying for a federal grant, you may also contact Judy West in my Pasco office at (509) 543-9396.

Each Federal agency has its own procedures - if the CFDA program description refers to a state or regional information contact as listed in Appendix IV, constituents/applicants should contact the federal department or agency office listed here before applying for funding to obtain the most up-to-date information.
