About this agency
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an independent agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, administers federal food safety, nutrition, food chemistry, dietary supplement, and related regulatory programs through a portfolio that emphasizes grant-funded training and educational partnerships alongside targeted IT systems and operations work.
FDA grant activity is concentrated among a small number of academic and school-district recipients but shows sharply accelerating volume. Since 1997, the agency has made 61 total federal grant awards obligating $288.4 million in federal dollars, with 48 distinct recipients over the portfolio lifetime. Recent activity has climbed steeply: 3 awards in 2021, 2 in 2022, 1 in 2023, 7 in 2024, and 18 in 2025. The most recent grant award was issued on September 30, 2025. Over the last five years, recipient concentration is fragmented by award count (top recipients account for 21 percent of recent awards) but highly fragmented by federal dollars (top recipients account for 8 percent of recent federal dollars obligated). Cornell University leads by recent award count with 2 awards obligating $5.4 million in federal dollars, followed by a dispersed group of academic and school-district recipients; Franklin Special School District, NLR Special School District, School District of Philadelphia, and Superintendent of Ozark School District No. 14 have each received single awards in the $3.7 million to $5.3 million range over the last five years. Grant assistance is predominantly structured as Cooperative Agreements (77 percent of awards) with a smaller share of Project Grants (23 percent).
