USCIS announces open application period for Citizenship and Integration Grant Program.
May 18, 2021
On Monday, USCIS announced it is now accepting applications for two funding opportunities under the Citizenship and Integration Grant Program. The grant opportunities will provide up to $10 million in grants for citizenship preparation programs for communities across the country. These competitive grant opportunities are open to organizations that prepare lawful permanent residents for naturalization and promote civic integration through increased knowledge of English, U.S. history, and civics. These funding opportunities are available to communities by the Congress’s support for the USCIS through appropriations. All the award recipients will be announced in September 2021.
