Federal Discretionary Grant Program Networking Workshop

Location
Mystic Lake Casino Hotel

New federal discretionary grant programs were authorized under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) in addition to existing grant programs. More funding is available and new guidance is being issued that will govern the distribution of these funds. 

Come learn more about these funding opportunities and how and when to apply for discretionary grants.  This event will bring local governments, tribes, transit systems and state agencies together with private sector partners to explore how we can help Minnesota maximize the amount of federal funding coming to our state.
