(EPA’s) and the Administration’s
commitment to achieving
environmental justice and embedding
environmental justice into Agency
programs, EPA released the Thriving
Communities Grantmaking Program
(TCGM) funding opportunity. The
Thriving Communities Grantmaking
program is a reimagining of the longstanding Environmental Justice (EJ)
Small Grants Program specifically
designed to address the needs of
underserved communities and
marginalized groups through the
provision of direct funding. Historically,
the Agency has managed the EJ Small
Grants directly, moving forward EPA
plans to award 11+ cooperative
agreement(s) to pass-through entities
(referred to as Grantmakers) in
collaboration with EPA to design and
build their own processes to receive and
evaluate competitive community project
applications. This competitive
subawards program called EJ Thriving
Communities Subgrants will fund the
initial development of community led
environmental justice projects. The
pass-through model removes the
requirement of applying through the
federal grants process and decreases the
amount of time it takes to award federal
funds. With this Information Collection
Request (ICR), EPA seeks authorization
to collect information to track progress
made by the 11+ Grantmakers and their
partnerships. Collection of this
information enables EPA to assess and
manage the TCGM Program, which
ensures responsible stewardship of
public funds; rigorous evidence-based
learning and improvement; and
transparent accountability to the
American public. This ICR also requests
authorization for the Grantmakers to
collect input and insights from
communities who seek to obtain
subawards via the Thriving
Communities Subgrant program, as well
as stakeholders who have valuable
experience and expertise in community
engagement and empowerment. These
information collections will enable the
Grantmakers and their partners to
document local priorities, needs, and
norms to ensure that they develop
useful and relevant outreach efforts and
subgrant opportunities regionally and
nationwide. Feedback about the
accessibility and effectiveness of the
subgrant opportunities will enable the
Grantmakers to conduct selfassessments of their work and identify
best practices and areas for
improvement. Furthermore, each
Grantmaker will offer specific
application standards for a competitive
community application for subaward

in order to track progress made in their
funded projects.
