Food and Drug Administration, Division of Federal-State Relations, Grants/Cooperative Agreements Program

 

General Information

Each year the FDA's Division of Federal-State Relations (DFSR) sponsors several competitive grant/cooperative agreement programs related to food safety and human health issues.  These grants/cooperative agreements provide Federal-State Agencies with the opportunity to enhance or develop new and existing programs intended to aid in safeguarding products intended for human or animal use.

Grants and cooperative agreements are only available to State, Local and Tribal governments interested in working on research and non-research projects.  Grants are designed to support Federal-State governments to diagnose, prevent, cure, treat, or mitigate disease (or other conditions).  The maximum grant amount and award period for each grant is specified in the Request for Applications (RFA), which can be found by selecting one of the topics found below.
