Federal Stimulus Funding

Following the passage of the American Recovery and Investment Act of 2009, funds will soon be available across the full range of federal agencies relating to President Obama's recovery plan. This web page is designed to guide members of the Northeastern community in identifying opportunities for Federal Funding:

A note on Assurance and Compliance 

Principal investigators and administrators are encouraged to pay particular attention to assurances and compliance information as described in Requests for Proposals designated as Recovery funding. The requirements for the special funds available through the stimulus bill include policy compliance and reporting requirements that are substantially more demanding than typical federal projects, especially given that awarded funds generally must be expended by September 30, 2010.
