Move on to agency sites
After finding an opportunity in Grants.gov, go to the sponsoring agency's site to find more information. Individual agencies usually have details about their funding opportunities and funding histories in their own searchable databases. These details often don't make it to Grants.gov. An agency's site also has overviews of the types of funding the agency typically provides and of their funding processes that can't be found on Grants.gov.
