How the records were joined
Grants.gov postings were checked November 10, 2026. Notice details come from the official extract dated November 10, 2026 and the Grants.gov detail service where newer information was available. Deadline comparisons use the same opportunity ID, number and agency across notice versions. A revised date can reflect a new filing cycle. Read the current announcement and package for the deadline that applies to you.
USAspending history groups signed prime grant and cooperative-agreement obligations by exact Assistance Listing and fiscal year. Amendments can reduce a total. An obligation is a commitment. These figures cover the program’s reported transactions across awards and say nothing about available funds or the chance of an award under a particular notice. Missing program-year rows are shown as unavailable. Program figures should be read separately when a notice lists several programs.
