About this program

The Department of Education administered the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) - Government Services under CFDA 84.397, a Recovery Act program whose most recent grant award was issued June 2, 2010.

This program is no longer active. All grant activity concluded in 2010, with 53 awards disbursed in 2009 and 3 final awards in early 2010. The program distributed $8.84 billion in combined federal dollars obligated to support public safety and government services, including assistance for elementary and secondary education, public higher education institutions, and modernization, renovation, or repair of public school and higher education facilities.

The program operated entirely as Formula Grants; all 56 awards in the portfolio followed this structure. The Department of Education was the sole funding source across all awards.

Award magnitudes ranged from $7.99 million to $1.08 billion, with typical awards in the $80 million to $350 million range. Representative recent awards included Formula Grant S397A090005 for $1.08 billion (April 17, 2009), Formula Grant S397A090044 for $723.17 million (July 9, 2009), and Formula Grant S397A090034 for $258.52 million (May 20, 2009).

No current grant opportunities exist under this program. The program was a time-limited Recovery Act funding mechanism that closed after fiscal year 2010. Applicants seeking current education stabilization or facilities funding should review active Department of Education programs rather than this expired assistance listing.
