Find Grant Funding
HRSA fulfills its mission through grants and cooperative agreements.
A grant is money, property, or direct help we award to a qualified non-federal entity (NFE).
A cooperative agreement is like a grant in that we award money to NFEs. However, we also help with program activities.
