Submitting Grant Application
State Grants
The application period for 2025-2027 DV and SA state grants is now open.
Approved applicants will receive a one-year contract with an option to renew in the second year of the fiscal biennium.
The process has two steps:
- Fill out the Grantee Supplemental Application Word form.
- The information in the applicable version of this form is the meat of the application for eligibility and will be uploaded to the EBS online grant management system.
You must submit a separate supplemental form for each program type (DV and SA) and for each county for which you are seeking a separate award.
- The Grantee Profile section in EBS must be completed and certified. For existing state grantees that already have a Grantee Profile, it must be updated and re-certified.
Completed applications (Grantee Profile with uploaded Grantee Supplemental Form(s)) have a deadline of submission through EBS by May 9, 2025.
See the section above for DV & SA program guidelines.
