Program Overview
As part of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service’s
State Wildlife Grant (SWG) program, Congress charged each state and
territory with developing a state Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation
Strategy (CWCS). Arkansas CWCS (now referred to as the Arkansas Wildlife
Action Plan) provides an essential foundation for the future of wildlife
conservation and an opportunity for state, federal agencies and other
conservation partners to fit together individual and coordinated roles in
conservation efforts across the state. As a part of this, the Arkansas Game
and Fish Commission is responsible for requesting and administering State
Wildlife Grants to support the implementation of the Arkansas Wildlife
Action Plan.
The State Wildlife Grants are distributed
specifically for the protection and management of nongame species in
greatest need of conservation identified in the Arkansas Wildlife Action
Plan. The amount available is expected to be approximately $500,000.
To help ensure that monies are applied to
projects that most efficiently and effectively address the needs identified
by the Arkansas Wildlife Action Plan, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission
and its partners have developed a competitive grant process for the State
Wildlife Grants.
