Federal grants can be excellent funding opportunities for your project.
But not understanding the process can lead to a great deal of frustration.
Learning the facts behind some common myths can help you to avoid confusion and be
more successful in applying for and implementing federal grant opportunities.
Grant eligibility is a common misconception.
It's important to know that not every organization is eligible for every grant.
Each funding opportunity or FOA will specify which organizations are eligible
to apply.
Eligible applicants for most HRSA funding opportunities include
non-profits, like charities, schools and community organizations
state and local government agencies
federally recognized tribes or tribal organizations.
It's important to check every FOA to confirm eligibility before you begin the
application process.
Confirming your eligibility will save you time and resources throughout the
application process. For more information
