Susan Harwood Training Grant Program FY 2010

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration announced the availability of $8 million in competitive safety and health training grants to assist nonprofit organizations in developing their capacity to provide occupational safety and health training, education and other related services to workers and employers. Two types of Capacity Building grant awards may be made: 1) Pilot grants and 2) Developmental grants. Pilot grants will assist organizations who need time to assess needs and formulate a plan before moving ahead with a full scale safety and health education program. Developmental grants will assist organizations that have already established the capacity to provide occupational safety and health training and related assistance to their constituents and are seeking to expand and develop their capacity to offer these services.A separate solicitation for Targeted Topics will be forthcoming.
