The Coastal Program, offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is designed to provide crucial technical and financial assistance for the restoration and protection of vital fish and wildlife habitats. This grant supports voluntary, incentive-based initiatives in coastal communities and on private lands, aiming to enhance biodiversity and ecological health. Unlike conventional grant solicitations, this program does not issue Requests for Proposals. Instead, projects are strategically developed in close collaboration with various partners and benefit from substantial involvement from Service field biologists, ensuring targeted and effective conservation outcomes. This program is for those seeking to work directly with the Service on impactful habitat conservation efforts rather than applying through traditional grant calls.
