State Revitalization Programs Accessibility Information State Revitalization Programs The FY28 Application Round is Open! Go to the Application section for how to apply and more information. Program Overview The Department’s State Revitalization Programs (SRP) offer a range of funding to further the revitalization goals of communities across Maryland.
The funding programs are primarily used to support expenses associated with capital projects – in other words, something that will result in “bricks and mortar” with at least a 15-year shelf life.
