About this opportunity
The Administration for Community Living is soliciting applications from state governments for the Traumatic Brain Injury State Partnership Program, with an application deadline of August 13, 2026. The program requires a mandatory 33.3% non-federal cost-share match and anticipates funding 32 awards of $190,000 to $205,000 per budget period over three 12-month periods (September 30, 2026 through September 29, 2029), totaling $6.376 million in program funding.
Eligible applicants are state governments, territorial governments, federally recognized Indian tribal governments, and Native American organizations; only one application per entity may enter review, and it must originate from the chief executive officer-designated lead TBI agency. Applicants must commit at least one full-time staff position, establish a state TBI advisory board with 50 percent membership comprised of individuals with lived TBI experience, develop a comprehensive state plan, implement resource facilitation services, participate in TBI grantee workgroups, and attend two national or regional TBI conferences annually.
The cooperative agreement emphasizes substantial Administration for Community Living involvement, including mandatory monthly conference calls and collaborative problem-solving. Merit review allocates 100 points across five criteria: project relevance and current need (20 points), approach (45 points), capability and expertise (15 points), project impact (10 points), and budget (10 points). Applications must be submitted through Grants.gov in PDF format with a project narrative not exceeding 20 pages. An optional notice of intent is due July 20, 2026. The program does not offer renewals; three-year awards are standard. CFDA 93.234.
