REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR FY23 INFORMATION, EDUCATION, AND OUTREACH (IEO) PROJECTS

The IGBC is seeking proposals for grants to partners and agencies to disseminate consistent messages about grizzly bears and to promote effective actions and techniques to increase human safety and decrease the likelihood of bear-human conflicts. The IGBC is anticipating that $42,000 will be available for grants in FY2023; actual project funding will be contingent on agency funding levels. The deadline to apply for 2023 grants has been extended to Nov. 11, 2022. Click the link below for more information on how to apply.
