GO Virginia Regional Per Capita Implementation Grants

Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development
State/Local Government
Virginia
Unspecified amount

GO Virginia Program Overview

GO Virginia is a collaborative economic development initiative, that provides project-based incentives to encourage collaboration between private industry, higher education and local government in each region to produce results that will grow and diversify the regional economies and ultimately the commonwealth.

To achieve the program goals, the GO Virginia State Board has created nine regional councils. These councils are responsible for developing regional Growth and Diversification Plans and implementing those plans through the submission of project applications. Applications approved at the regional level are advanced to the GO Virginia State Board for funding.

The GO Virginia State Board has identified four primary investment strategies to achieve the program goals. The four priority investment strategies are:

  • Workforce Development – building talent pipelines aligned with business needs that increases the pool of qualified workers
  • Site Development and Infrastructure - preparing a regional portfolio of business-ready sites that attract private investment
  • Entrepreneurship & Innovation (Startup Ecosystem) - creating a resource-rich environment for scalable start-ups and early-stage companies 
  • Cluster Scale-Up - helping existing regional industries grow and compete at a larger scale

All successful projects should align with at least one of these strategies and demonstrate a clear connection to a region’s Growth & Diversification Plan. See the GO Virginia Program Manual for details.

  • GO Virginia is not an economic development incentive program. Individual private businesses may not receive funding, nor can any project provide exclusive benefits to a single private business.
  • GO Virginia funds must support new and expanded efforts — not ongoing operations. Funding cannot be used to continue, sustain, or supplement the operating costs of existing programs. Projects must clearly demonstrate added value and represent new activity that advances GO Virginia’s mission. Proposals must fill a documented gap, scale a proven model, or introduce a new approach that supports regional priorities.

Virginia Growth and Opportunity Fund (GO Virginia) Regional Per Capita Implementation Grants

Regional Implementation Grants support ready-to-execute, high-impact regional projects that advance a region’s Growth and Diversification Plan and move beyond planning into implementation. These projects are designed to grow and diversify regional economies through activities that support one of the GO Virginia investment strategies of talent development, site readiness, entrepreneurship & Innovation, or accelerate the development of emerging industry clusters.

Projects are expected to have industry focus and deliver measurable economic outcomes and demonstrate readiness to begin implementation upon approval. They must demonstrate strong support from local units of government, industry partners, educational institutions, or other relevant entities/organizations. Projects must add value and not duplicate existing efforts. Coordination with local, regional, and private-sector partners is essential.

Conservation Incentive Program Grant: Feral Hog Trap Reimbursement

Arkansas Game and Fish Commission
State/Local Government
Arkansas
Up to US $20,000

Conservation Incentive Program (CIP)

At the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, our mission is to conserve and enhance our state’s wildlife and their habitats. It’s a job we take to heart and one we never take for granted. But our state is vast and only 10% of it is public land that we can manage. We need partners. People who are part of this natural wonder every day of their lives. Landowners who appreciate the unique resources that few have, and who take the responsibility of their land seriously.

Landowners are, and always have been, the cornerstone to conservation efforts and wildlife management in our state. If you’re willing to put in the effort and do the hard work with us, we’re willing to reward you for it.

We have numerous programs that will make your land more valuable to the fish and wildlife on your property, that reflect our shared values and will help keep The Natural State, natural.

Feral Hog Trapping

Feral swine eradication is a component of an area-wide effort of assessment, control and monitoring to document and reduce resource damage caused by feral swine. Damages include impacts to native wildlife, soil health, destruction of natural areas, water bodies and wetlands, vegetative diversity, and pasture and rangeland.

Landowner payments are capped at $20,000, with a reimbursement rate set at 75% of the actual cost for eligible traps and control systems. Landowners will receive two payments: the first 45%, as demonstrated by actual receipts or paid invoices, and the second payment to cover the additional 30% after the first successfully documented trap event of feral hogs using the AGFC monitoring app on any of the properties included within the application.
