State & Tribal Wildlife Grants Program :: Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies state AND tribal wildlife grants program Proactive Conservation to Prevent and Recover Endangered Species About State & Tribal Wildlife Grants In 2000, the US Congress created the State and Tribal Wildlife Grants program to address the longstanding need to support state and territorial efforts to proactively conserve rare and declining fish and wildlife.
Since the program's inception, over $1 billion has been allocated to state, territorial, and District of Columbia fish and wildlife agencies. The program led to the development of ground-breaking State Wildlife Action Plans and is a principal source of funding for their development, revision, and implementation.
The program has been successful in precluding the need to list some species under the federal Endangered Species Act and is also helping to recover species already listed. The program provides apportionments to fish and wildlife agencies using a formula based 2/3s on population and 1/3 land area. No state can receive more than 5% or less than 1% apportionment.
The program also allocates funding for competitive grants to states and tribes. The program is administered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service Office of Conservation Investment within the Department of Interior.

The North American Wetlands Conservation Act funds wetland and migratory-bird habitat through two tracks — U.S. Small Grants (up to $250,000, closing June 25, 2026) and the larger U.S. Standard Grants. Both require a 1:1 non-federal match, and that match is where most applications are won or lost. Here is how the program works, who is eligible, and why land trusts and Tribes should care.
