Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00110
The Sonoran Joint Venture Migratory Bird Program (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00110) is a competitive grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service to support the investigation and conservation of birds and the habitats they depend on within the Sonoran Joint Venture (SJV) geographic boundaries. The program is designed to move forward the SJV mission and objectives by funding on-the-ground and applied conservation work that can demonstrate clear benefits for migratory birds and related species, especially where needs are well-defined and outcomes can be tied to measurable conservation gains in the region.
Projects are eligible when their primary focus fits into one of three core categories: habitat, monitoring, or planning. Habitat projects generally involve actions that protect, restore, enhance, or manage habitat in ways that improve conditions for birds. Monitoring projects typically focus on collecting data that informs conservation decisions, such as surveys, population monitoring, habitat-use assessments, or other field-based efforts that help track trends and evaluate management effectiveness. Planning projects support the development of strategies, designs, partnerships, or frameworks that enable coordinated conservation, such as habitat conservation plans, implementation plans, prioritization efforts, or other structured approaches that guide future habitat or monitoring work.
While habitat, monitoring, or planning must be the main outcome, the program also allows proposals to include supporting components such as outreach, education, community involvement, research, ecotourism, or professional training. These elements are viewed as complementary pieces that can strengthen a project, broaden its impact, and improve long-term conservation success, but they are not intended to replace the central requirement that the overall project deliver a habitat-, monitoring-, or planning-centered conservation result.
This opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a grant as the funding instrument type. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA number is 15.637. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning applications are open to any type of entity, with the note that applicants should check any additional eligibility clarifications that may be provided in the full announcement materials.
In terms of scale, the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $30,000, and the program expected to make about five awards under this funding round. The opportunity was created on February 2, 2017, with an original application closing date of April 2, 2017. Overall, the grant is geared toward practical, mission-aligned conservation projects in the SJV region that can show a clear connection between proposed activities and improved outcomes for birds and their habitats, whether through direct habitat work, stronger monitoring and data collection, or planning efforts that enable more effective conservation over time.Apply for F17AS00110
