Funding Strategies and Grants Database

Accessing grants for outdoor recreation planning can provide critical funding to support community and economic development, environmental conservation, and infrastructure establishment. Grants can help cover the costs of planning, designing, and implementing projects such as trails, parks, campgrounds, and other recreational facilities. They can also assist with associated costs, such as workforce housing development, public infrastructure improvements, and technical assistance. By leveraging external funding, you can expand your community’s capacity to create accessible and sustainable outdoor spaces that benefit both residents and visitors.

To explore available funding opportunities, refer to the downloadable Grants and Funding Database, which offers an extensive list of available grant programs for outdoor recreation and community planning. This tool can help you identify grants that align with your project's goals and increase your chances of securing support.

Whether you are in the early planning stages or looking for supplemental funding, the Grants and Funding Database is a valuable tool for navigating the funding landscape and building stronger, more resilient outdoor recreation initiatives.
