Four County Grant Programs Expected to Launch January 2026

The Office of Grants Management anticipates launching four grant programs in January 2026: the FY26 Emerging Business District Grant Program, the FY26 Place-Based Management Grants Program, the FY26 Local Food Aggregation Grant Program (awarding $550,000 in year one), and FY26 Underserved Communities Projects Grant Program Renewals (Year 3 of 3). The Emerging Business District and Place-Based Management programs are administered by the Community Engagement Cluster and focus on commercial corridor revitalization. The Local Food Aggregation grant targets establishment of a facility for locally produced food to meet wholesale and institutional market demand.
