This grant, the State Wildlife Grants Competitive Program, is for the purpose of implementing State Wildlife Action Plans (SWAPs) and fostering cooperative partnerships to conserve wildlife. Established in 2008, the program prioritizes projects that address Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) as identified in Service-approved SWAPs. It also supports initiatives tackling emerging issues, such as climate change impacts on SGCN, with the goal of improving the status of these species or their habitats. Funds are awarded to the highest-scoring applications, with a strong emphasis on multistate conservation efforts that demonstrate clear, measurable performance results and outcomes. This competitive program seeks to ensure the long-term health and biodiversity of the nation’s wildlife.
