EPA Seeks Applicants for 2023 Environmental Education Grants
EPA Seeks Applicants for 2023 Environmental Education Grants
WASHINGTON (Sept. 14, 2023) – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) announced that up to $3.6 million in funding for locally-focused
environmental education grants is now available under the 2023 Environmental
Education (EE) Local Grant Program. EPA will award grants in each of EPA’s
10 Regions, between $50,000-$100,000 each, for a total of 30-40 grants
nationwide. The program includes support for projects that reflect the
intersection of environmental issues with climate change adaptation and
mitigation strategies, preventing future water quality and human health
issues, in addition to other environmental topics. 
“It is more important now than ever that we understand the environmental
changes happening around us,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan.
“Investing in environmental education is investing in America’s future,
and these grants will ensure that communities have access to quality tools to
get involved – and stay involved – at a local level.”
Funded projects will increase public awareness of those topics and help
participants to develop the skills needed to make informed decisions. Each of
the 10 EPA Regions published a solicitation notice with their respective
regional details. Applicants must apply to the Regional NOFO that corresponds
with the location of their proposed project. Through this grant program, EPA
intends to provide financial support for projects that design, demonstrate,
and/or disseminate environmental education practices, methods, or techniques,
that will serve to increase environmental literacy and encourage behavior that
will benefit the environment in local communities, especially underserved
communities. This grant program recognizes underserved communities as
high-poverty areas, persistent poverty counties, communities the Council on
Environmental Quality’s Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool
identifies as disadvantaged communities, and Title I schools.
Since 1992, EPA has distributed between $2 and $3.5 million in grant funding
per year under this program, supporting more than 3,920 grants and making the
grant program one of the most utilized in the agency.
