FMCSA Resources for Grants

Begin with Grant Planning Resources

When researching department of transportation grants, how do I find grants to apply for? Consider discretionary grants offered by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, a branch of DOT. Use the dropdown menu below as a resource to find funding for your organization or agency.

Preparing a successful federal grant proposal and completing a grant application takes planning and teamwork. Start early. The process can begin before FMCSA announces Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) and sets the time frame for when applications can be submitted.
