The Department of the Interior’s Office of Insular Affairs (OIA) is offering its Technical Assistance Program (TAP) to support development in insular areas. This grant is for projects that enhance accountability, financial management (including tax collection), economic growth, training, education, energy, management control, safety, emergency preparedness, historical & cultural preservation, and health initiatives. TAP grants aim to provide temporary short-term expertise rather than funding routine operational expenses, large construction projects, or local government employee salaries. This program seeks to foster sustainable growth and improved governance within the insular regions.
