About this program

The National Credit Union Administration administers the Community Development Revolving Loan Fund Program for Credit Unions (CFDA 44.002), which funds technical assistance grants for low-income designated credit unions, with the most recent posted opportunity closing on July 12, 2024.

The program's recent activity presents a critical decision point. The portfolio contains 190 Project Grant awards, all obligated in 2016—the only year with recorded activity in the data provided. No grant awards have been disbursed since August 2016, making this a dormant program by the standards of current federal funding. The National Credit Union Administration is the sole funder, obligating $1.4 million in combined federal dollars across the full award set.

Recent awards funded cybersecurity initiatives, staff training, student intern positions, and organizational capacity and growth projects at credit unions. Representative awards include capacity and growth projects funded at $15,000 each (Project Grants 350004789, 350004830, 350004734, 350004780, 350004807, 350004809, 350004813, 350004756, 350004759, and 350004803), cybersecurity projects typically at $7,000 (Projects 350004633, 350004604, 350004610, 350004653, 350004673, 350004620, 350004654, 350004665, 350004684, 350004693, 350004697, 350004625, 350004618, and 350004617), and staff training grants at smaller amounts ranging from $500 to $3,000.

A Notice of Funding Opportunity (NCUA-CDRLF-2024G) was posted April 2, 2024, announcing technical assistance grants for low-income designated credit unions through the 2024 CDRLF Grant Round, with applications opening May 1, 2024 and a final due date of July 12, 2024. Applications were not to be submitted through grants.gov. Given the nearly eight-year gap between the last awards and the 2024 opportunity posting, current funding intent and award cadence remain unclear from the available data.
