Grants.Gov
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) unveiled on Tuesday a single, comprehensive website that will contain information on all federal grant programs once fully operational. The website, Grants.gov, is expected to make it easier for organizations to learn about and apply for federal grants. Grants.gov presently has information for more than 800 available grant programs involving all 26 federal grant-making agencies. The website provides information in a standardized format across these agencies and features a search tool to help applicants find potential funding opportunities. The cross-agency website also simplifies the application process by allowing applicants to download, complete and submit applications for specific grant opportunities. To date, application packages have been posted to Grants.gov by five agencies — the U.S. Departments of Commerce, Education, Energy, Justice and HHS. This list will be expanded in the coming months as federal agencies continue to post application information about additional grant opportunities. Grants.gov is a key element of President Bush's E-Gov initiative, which aims at harnessing Internet-based technology to make it easy for citizens and businesses to interact with the government, save taxpayer dollars and streamline citizen-to-government communications. The White House Office for Management and Budget named HHS as the lead agency for the Grants.gov initiative. HHS is joined in the collaborative effort by the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Education, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Justice, Labor and Transportation, as well as the National Science Foundation.
