With funding from a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Targeted Watershed Initiative Grant, the Center for Watershed Protection is currently inviting proposals for its Technical Capacity Mini-Grant Program, awarding direct assistance and financial support to a wide range of small watershed organizations.

Proposals are due September 30.

These small watershed organizations play a key role in local watershed management and, collectively, in regional water resource protection and restoration. The goal of the mini-grant program is to strengthen the technical capacity of these watershed organizations in the areas of stormwater and watershed management.

Since watershed organizations often have little to no full-time staff, the grant application process is intended to be simple and streamlined. However, funds are limited and grants will be awarded on a rolling basis, so associations are urged to act quickly.
