U.S. National Science Foundation
The U.S. NSF Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (NSF TIP) partners across sectors to advance three primary focus areas – accelerating technology translation and development, fostering regional innovation and economic growth, and preparing the American workforce for future high-wage jobs in STEM fields.
The translation of research to practice ensures that the insights and innovations developed through scientific study and experimentation have tangible, positive impacts for the Nation. These impacts include improving the quality of life, promoting economic and job growth, ensuring national security, and maintaining global competitiveness. Indeed, scientific and engineering breakthroughs have the potential to address critical societal challenges in industries such as aerospace, agriculture, communications, education, energy, healthcare, national security, and transportation – but the translation of discoveries and innovations from the laboratory to society often takes many forms including non-linear pathways.
The NSF TTP program was developed with several goals in mind:
To identify and support use-inspired research and translational activities enabling a continuum from foundational research to practice;
To develop partnerships and collaborations between institutions of higher education and other entities (e.g., industry, state/local/national government agencies, philanthropies, open-source ecosystems, for-benefit, for-profit and non-profit organizations, international organizations, etc.);
To promote and advance the education and training of students and postdoctoral researchers, encouraging the participation of all Americans in STEM including innovation and entrepreneurship; and
To identify future customer needs and opportunities and bring these to the forefront in the conduct of use-inspired research and translational activities.
The NSF TTP program offers three tracks that represent different starting points or stages in moving discoveries and innovations from the laboratory to practice:
NSF TTP-Explore (NSF TTP-E) is a pilot track that is likely to be the first step for researchers seeking to translate their basic research to practice. To be eligible for the NSF TTP-E track, proposers must have an active, eligible, NSF research award (see Eligibility Information for further details). TTP-E is designed to encourage current, eligible NSF awardees to intentionally pursue applications of their research with the potential for societal impact. The NSF TTP-E track provides the opportunity to obtain an extension of the initial award period of a current NSF award for up to two years in order to offer investigators an opportunity to explore adventurous, high-risk, use-inspired research and initial translational activities as the starting point for translation that was not covered by the original research award.
NSF TTP-Translate (NSF TTP-T) starts with use-inspired research and initial translational activities and further matures the idea(s), iterates and improves the solution(s), and lowers the barrier(s) to effective translation of research from lab to practice.
NSF TTP-Partner (NSF TTP-P) supports translational efforts that demand one or more partnerships for technology development and deployment. Here, strategic partnerships with stakeholders beyond U.S. institutions of higher education are essential ingredients for success and may include industry partners, government entities at all levels, philanthropies, international organizations, or other groups associated with large scale productization and distribution. The NSF TTP-P track requires an NSF-Catalyzed Partnership with an organization that will assist in the translation to practice. In addition to the Principal Investigator (PI), NSF TTP-P proposals must include a co-PI or Senior/Key Personnel who is a member or employee of the NSF-Catalyzed Partner. Partnerships with U.S. institutions of higher education are valued, but NSF TTP strongly prioritizes NSF-Catalyzed Partnerships that are able to help bring the product, process, or service to the market, potentially through licensing agreements, startup or small business formation, incorporation into an existing open-source ecosystem, development into standards setting arrangements, etc.

Applicants cannot receive both grants made under this part and grants that the Forest Service makes to implement the action plans for five continuous years from the date of grant approval by the Forest Service.
(1) The Forest Service helps rural communities that are dependent upon national forest resources diversify existing industries and economies. It establishes rural forestry and economic diversification action teams that prepare technical assistance plans for these rural communities to expand their local economies and reduce their dependence on national forest resources. The Forest Service provides assistance to implement the action plans through grants, loans, cooperative agreements, or contracts.
(2) To avoid duplicate assistance, applicants must contact the Forest Service to find out if any geographical areas or local areas in a State have received grants for technical assistance to an economically disadvantaged community. These areas are defined as national forest-dependent communities under 7 U.S.C. 6612. Applicants will provide documentation to the Forest Service and Rural Utilities Service that they have contacted each agency.

Department of Parks and Recreation
The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) was established by Congress in 1964 to fulfill a bipartisan commitment to safeguard our natural areas, water resources and cultural heritage, and to provide recreation opportunities to all Americans. Using zero taxpayer dollars, the LWCF invests earnings from offshore oil and gas leasing to help strengthen communities, preserve our history and protect our national endowment of lands and waters.
Eligible Local and Non-State Agencies: · Cities and counties · Federally recognized Native American tribes · Joint Powers Authorities (JPA) where all members are public agencies. o A JPA can include a state agency if at least one member is a local (non-state) public agency or district, and the JPA was formed for the purpose of providing PARK and recreation areas. · Non-state agency recreation and park districts and special districts with authority to acquire, operate, and maintain public park and recreation areas. Deadline: Thursday, January 14, 2027 Maximum Grant Request: $6 million Match Requirement: 50% Eligible Projects: ACQUISITION PROJECTS or DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS are eligible for LWCF funding. Combination PROJECTS are not eligible. All PROJECTS must meet at least one State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP). Visit https://www.parksforcalifornia.org/scorp/ to read the current SCORP and review the SCORP Priorities. priority. Acquisition Examples: · ACQUISITION to create a NEW PARK. · ACQUISITION to EXPAND or provide a buffer for an existing PARK. · ACQUISITION to provide a wildlife corridor that supports public viewing and outdoor recreational use (not habitat conservation for its own sake—all PROJECTS must have a primary purpose of public outdoor recreation). · ACQUISITION to provide a recreational/active transportation trail corridor that connects neighborhoods to workplaces, schools, homes, and other recreational opportunities. New Recreation Opportunity for Acquisitions: ACQUISITION PROJECTS must result in at least one NEW RECREATION OPPORTUNITY for the public within three years after the completion of the ACQUISITION. The entire PARK DEVELOPMENT does not need to be completed; a phased portion is acceptable and must be completed within three years. In some cases, the ACQUISITION property may not require DEVELOPMENT to provide a NEW RECREATION OPPORTUNITY. Examples include: · An existing fire or safety road in the ACQUISITION property that is readily useable as a trail or walking pathway. · EXPANSIONS: The ACQUISITION property is adjacent to an existing PARK, and can serve: o To protect the VIEWSHED of the PARK for current and future generations of PARK visitors. In this case, enjoying the VIEWSHED is a recreation opportunity for the PARK visitors. o To protect a wildlife corridor for current and future generations, where visitors of the existing PARK come to enjoy watching wildlife. Development: DEVELOPMENT of RECREATION FEATURES must be for outdoor recreation. LWCF funds are intended to increase outdoor recreational opportunities for the health and wellness of Californians.
