Synopsis

2 versions

Update #2 · Latest ·


The Department is combining two major discretionary grant programs, the Reconnecting Communities Pilot (RCP) and Neighborhood Access and Equity (NAE) programs, into one Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). Together, this combined program is known as the Reconnecting Communities and Neighborhoods (RCN) Program.


The RCP Program aims to advance and support reconnection of communities divided by transportation infrastructure - with a priority on helping disadvantaged communities improve access to daily needs (jobs, schools, healthcare, grocery stores, and recreation). Funds for the fiscal year (FY) 2023 RCP grant program are to be awarded on a competitive basis to support planning and capital construction activities that aim to restore community connectivity through the removal, retrofit, mitigation or replacement of highways, roadways, or other infrastructure facilities that create barriers to mobility, access or economic development.

Applicants must submit their applications via Valid Eval at the links below:

Capital Construction Grants: https://usg.valideval.com/teams/rcn_capitalconstruction/signup


Do not submit applications through Grants.gov.


Applications must be submitted by 11:59 PM Eastern Time on Thursday, September 28, 2023. Late applications will not be accepted.
