Grants

The Mendocino County Fish and Game Commission solicits grant applications that comply with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife guidelines and codes. The Commission reviews the applications and provides recommendations to the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors for projects to awarded funding. Grant applications are routinely solicited annually in autumn and awarded early spring, pending approval by the Board of Supervisors. Per the County Supervisor's request, projects leading to wildlife and habitat restoration and rehabilitation will be prioritized. Please contact the Commission with any questions.
