Strategic Grant Services Program (SGSP)
The Strategic Grant Services Program provides services to internal County departments.
The County of Monterey recognizes the need to pursue grant opportunities to fund projects and programs to serve our community. Many County departments routinely pursue grant funding from state and federal sources, and private foundations. The Board of Supervisors created the Strategic Grants Services Program to assist County departments and concentrate funding efforts on the County’s highest priority needs and projects which require a high level of collaboration among County departments and/or community partners. The Program has a limited workload capacity which is directed by the Board through an annually adopted Work Plan. The Program works in close collaboration with the County’s Legislative Program, which aims to maximize funding opportunities through state and federal sources which translate into possible County funding opportunities. The Program is executed by the County Administrative Office – Intergovernmental & Legislative Affairs Division (IGLA) with the assistance of the County’s grant consultants, and with a high level of collaboration with County departments.

Policies - Strategic Grant Services Program
California Grants Portal - Grants.ca.gov
The California Grants Portal (a project by the California State Library) is a one-stop destination to find all grants and loans offered on a competitive or first-come basis by California State agencies. The Grant Information Act requires state agencies to provide summaries of each of their grant or loan opportunities, including information about how to apply and links that grant seekers can follow for more details. Visit Grants.ca.gov
Federal Grants Portal - Grants.gov
Grants.gov provides a centralized location for grant seekers to find and apply for federal funding opportunities. The Grants.gov system houses information on over 1,000 grant programs and vets grant applications for federal grant-making agencies. It provides a common website for federal agencies to post discretionary funding opportunities and for grantees to find and apply to them. Using the Grants.gov system makes it faster, easier and more cost effective for grant applicants to electronically interact with federal grant-making agencies. Visit Grants.gov
