About

WELCOME TO THE GRANTS & FEDERAL RESOURCES TEAM 

The Grants & Federal Resources Team (GFRT) within the Governor’s Office of Strategic Planning and Budgeting (OSPB) that helps state agencies, local governments, and non-profit organizations, find, win and manage grants. Our main goal is to ensure that funds received by the state are utilized and distributed efficiently and effectively. We strive to be the premier resource for training and technical assistance for the Arizona grants community and to simplify the grant pursuance process for grant opportunities offered by state agencies as local governments and nonprofits search all current state opportunities on this site.

For our fellow state colleagues, you can access the state’s subscription to the eCivis Grants Management System through this website and search for federal and foundation grant opportunities, as well as, manage your current open projects and grants.

The maximum benefits from grant programs are only achieved by reducing unnecessary administrative costs while simultaneously improving program performance and outcomes, increasing overall results, while ensuring integrity, transparency, and accountability in the process. While GFRT undertakes these lofty goals, we will continue to communicate our efforts and share helpful resources.

MISSION

To maximize the value of grant funding by applying a risk-based, data-driven framework that balances compliance requirements with demonstrating successful results for the American taxpayer.

VISION

To be the premier resource for the Arizona grants community by providing and coordinating information, business systems, model guidance, best practices, training, and support to help the grants community build the capacity it needs to successfully apply for and manage federal grant programs, and in doing this ensure that Arizona receives its fair share of federal resources while minimizing unnecessary federal regulations and unfunded mandates.
