The USDA Forest Service is offering grants through the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) Forest Restoration 2024 program. The grants will support projects in the Great Lakes basin that implement strategic actions to mitigate invasive forest insect and disease impacts, reduce runoff through green infrastructure, and restore and connect coastal and riparian forest habitats. Eligible applicants include state and local governments, tribes, non-profits, and educational institutions. Projects will be evaluated based on their ability to achieve measurable outcomes in the three program areas. An informational webinar will be held on July 23, 2024, and applications are due by September 18, 2024.

The funding range for this opportunity is $50,000 to $300,000 per project, with varying allowable federal request amounts for each program area.
