Office Representative to Muslim Communities

The Department of State Office Representative to Muslim Communities is a sub-office within the State Department that administers small-scale federal grants supporting engagement and dialogue initiatives focused on Muslim communities. The office has made eight federal grant awards totaling $2.2 million across five distinct recipients since 2013, with the most recent award closing in October 2018. Grant activity has been episodic: six awards in 2013, one in 2015, and one in 2018, with no recorded grant awards in the past eight years. The office does not appear to maintain active contract award activity at scale.

Grant recipients are highly fragmented, with the top five recipients accounting for an unknown concentration of federal dollars due to incomplete reporting in the source data; activity is distributed across five organizations over the thirteen-year portfolio history. The assistance-type mix is dominated by Project Grants, which represent 88 percent of awards, with a single Cooperative Agreement comprising the remainder. The median award size is approximately $275,000, suggesting support for moderate-scale community engagement programs rather than large institutional partnerships.

No recent grant opportunities are recorded for this office. The absence of solicitation activity and grant awards since October 2018 indicates the office is not currently active in grant-making or has not processed new funding opportunities through recent cycles. Business development professionals should verify current operational status with the State Department before pursuing or committing resources against this office.
