Governor's Office of Federal Assistance
The Governor's Office of Federal Assistance (OFA), was established July 1, 2022 and codified within NRS 223.478-486. The Agency provides a range of grant-related support for the legislatively identified stakeholders. With a mission to increase the number of grant dollars Nevada receives, OFA works to reduce and remove barriers to federal grant funding through providing grant resources, advocacy, and coordination, among federal grant applicants across the state.
The Governor's Office of Federal Assistance also serves as the single point of contact for Nevada’s federal grant applications that are subject to intergovernmental review, supports the Nevada Advisory Council on Federal Assistance, and works with Nevada’s federal delegation on grant-related initiatives.
Grant Matching Program
The Governor’s Office of Federal Assistance’s Grant Matching Program (GMP) is available for state agencies, local agencies, tribal governments, and nonprofits applying for federal or competitive federally funded state pass-through funds within the State of Nevada to meet match/cost share requirements. Applicants must have exhausted all efforts to find available funding, prior to the awarding of the federal grant or up to 90 days after the award date on the federal Notice of Grant Award (NoGA). Grant applications submitted prior to accepting the award will be given priority.
All applicants must receive a federal or a competitive federally funded state award notification and provide documentation to the Governor’s Office of Federal Assistance. Applications will be reviewed upon submission and awarded throughout the program period on a first-come, firstserved basis.
