Washington is launching a program to support access to Federal Funds grant writing assistance for communities across the State. In response to the unprecedented clean energy funding available via the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the Washington Department of Commerce, in partnership with Hagerty Consulting, is launching the Federal Funds Grant Writing Assistance Program (FFGWAP).
The FFGWAP is designed for Washington community-based organizations, local government agencies, ports, housing authorities, tribes, businesses, and others eligible to receive Federal funds to prepare and submit grant applications, and to help Washington meet its clean electricity and greenhouse gas reduction goals using approaches that enhance equity, innovation, economic growth, and job creation.
