FloridaCommerce has announced the extension of application deadlines for several grant programs due to Hurricane Helene. The new deadline for the Florida Defense Infrastructure Grant (DIG) and Florida Defense Reinvestment Grant (DRG) programs is October 18, 2024. The deadline for the Florida Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) has been extended to October 31, 2024.
This extension aims to accommodate communities affected by Hurricane Helene, providing them with additional time to apply without impacting the state's timeline for issuing awards.
For questions and assistance with the DIG and DRG application process, contact DefenseGrants@commerce.fl.gov or visit the Office of Military and Defense’s Military Community Programs page.
