Webinar: Capacity Building Grants for Non-Land-Grant Colleges of Agriculture Program
The NIFA Institute of Youth, Family and Community held a webinar on October 26, 2022, to provide information about the Capacity Building Grants for Non-Land-Grant Colleges of Agriculture (NLGCA) Program.
Institutions may use NLGCA funds: (a) to successfully compete for funds from Federal grants and other sources to carry out educational, research, and outreach activities that address priority concerns of national, regional, State, and local interest; (b) to disseminate information relating to priority concerns to interested members of the agriculture, renewable resources, and other relevant communities, the public, and any other interested entity; (c) to encourage members of the agriculture, renewable resources, and other relevant communities to participate in priority education, research, and outreach activities by providing matching funding to leverage grant funds; and (d) through: (1) the purchase or other acquisition of equipment and other infrastructure (not including alteration, repair, renovation, or construction of buildings); (2) the professional growth and development of the faculty of the NLGCA Institution; and (3) the development of graduate assistantships.
To apply for this grant program, the institution must be Certified as a Non-land Grant College of Agriculture. Please review the NLGCA Eligibility Flowchart and corresponding Request for Non-Land-Grant Colleges of Agriculture Designation.
