State-specific Texas grant programs are being added; federal opportunities below are open to Texas applicants.
Which federal programs actually fund Texas
Competitively awarded federal grant dollars that went to Texas recipients in FY2025 — project grants and cooperative agreements only. Formula and block funding (Medicaid, highways) is excluded because it is allocated to state government, not won by applicants.
