Now accepting project proposals for 2025 grants!

The Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Act (NMBCA) established the Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to provide competitive, matching grants to projects that benefit neotropical birds across their range. The act authorizes grants for projects across the Western Hemisphere, including the United States, Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean.  

The grants provided through this program help partners to protect, research, monitor, and manage bird populations and their habitats throughout their entire migratory life cycle, as well as to conduct community outreach and education. Over time, this funding helps prevent species from being listed as threatened or endangered, with priority given to imperiled species that are listed on our Birds of Conservation Concern 2021 report. 

The FWS Migratory Bird Program’s Division of Bird Habitat Conservation (DBHC) manages the NMBCA grants program and reviews proposals submitted during the program’s annual funding cycle. Final funding decisions are made by the Director of the FWS.
