Instructions for Obtaining a Complete Grant Application Package

To obtain a complete application package, look for these documents:

(1) RFGP — Highlights key program components, proposal guidelines, and information about the projected time sequence for awards, including grant proposal submission due date.

(2) Proposal Submission Instructions (PSI) package — The package consists of the following instructions and forms:

1. Proposal Submission Instructions (PSI) (11 pages)*

2. SF-424 Application for Federal Assistance (2 pages)*

3. SF-424B Assurances - Nonconstruction Programs (2 pages)*

The two Standard Federal forms listed above are a required part of every grant application and must be completed and submitted with proposals responding to all RFGPs.

(3) Program Objective, Goals, and Implementation (POGI) — Elaborates on the program guidelines outlined in the RFGP, providing more specifics to assist in program development. Normally, Bureau solicitations include a POGI; however, in some cases, the program office may have included complete program details in the RFGP and did not prepare a POGI. Those interested in submitting a proposal must ensure that all parts of the Solicitation Package have been obtained before beginning work on the proposal.

Solicitation Packages may be downloaded from this website or requested from the Program Officer listed in each RFGP.
