About this opportunity

The Department of Community Services and Development (CSD) has released a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the Farmworker Resource Center Grant. The purpose of the Farmworker Resource Center Grant NOFA is to inform interested counties of the availability of grant funding to support the establishment or expansion of Farmworker Resource Centers in their respective counties to provide access to services and programs designed to address the needs of farmworkers and their families. CSD anticipates awarding three grants from this NOFA subject to the availability of funds and the quality of applications received. A total of $2.5 million is available to support the establishment or expansion of county-level Farmworker Resource Centers. Activities under the Farmworker Resource Center Grant must be conducted in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner to effectively meet the needs of the target populations.
