Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA EE 18 01
The Environmental Education Local Grants Program for Region 1 (Solicitation Notice for 2018) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to fund locally focused environmental education projects. The central goal of the program is to strengthen environmental literacy at the community level by helping people better understand environmental and conservation issues, while also building practical skills that enable participants to make informed choices and take responsible actions that benefit the environment. In other words, the program is not just about sharing information; it is designed to support education efforts that lead to real-world decision-making and behavior that reflect stronger environmental awareness.
This opportunity is listed under the funding opportunity title "Environmental Education Local Grants Program for Region 1-- Solicitation Notice for 2018" with the funding opportunity number EPA EE 18 01. The funding instrument is a grant, and the funding activity category is listed as Environment. The program is associated with CFDA number 66.951, which corresponds to EPA environmental education funding. The announcement was created on January 9, 2018, and the original application closing date was March 15, 2018, with instructions indicating that applicants should review Section IV of the official announcement for detailed submission requirements and procedures.
In terms of award size and scale, the maximum funding amount per award (the award ceiling) is $100,000, and EPA anticipated making approximately four awards under this solicitation. The competition is therefore relatively small and likely selective, emphasizing projects that are clearly local in focus and that directly support the program purpose: increasing public awareness and knowledge and providing participants with the skills needed to act responsibly toward the environment.
Eligibility is summarized broadly as "Others," with a note directing applicants to consult the announcement section titled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification. This typically signals that eligibility may extend beyond a narrow set of applicants but is defined more precisely in the full solicitation text. The funding is administered by the Environmental Protection Agency, and because it is a discretionary grant, applicants generally must propose a well-defined project, demonstrate capability to carry it out, and align tightly with the program's environmental education objectives to be competitive.Apply for EPA EE 18 01
