Grant Application BootCamp

Submitting strong applications for federal infrastructure money can be challenging for small and mid-sized cities, towns, and villages. To assist underserved local governments with populations of 150,000 residents or fewer, NLC and the Local Infrastructure Hub are offering a series of bootcamps. The bootcamps are designed to help local governments take advantage of the grant opportunities available through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. More Information
