Eligible applicants are governmental agencies, state government subdivisions, universities, some nonprofit organizations and federally recognized Indian tribes. Other groups can apply for a grant through an eligible entity as a partner.

Application information is available on the department’s website or by calling them at (605) 773-4254.
