Applications are now open for 2022 Citizenship and Integration Grant Program: Regional Hub Program (RHP) to expand the availability of high-quality citizenship preparation services for immigrants across the nation and to provide opportunities for immigrants to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to integrate into the fabric of American society.
The objective of this funding opportunity is to build capacity for citizenship education and naturalization application services, including identifying service provision gaps and fostering coordinating and information sharing among providers in a given state or area to more wholistically address needs.

DHS reserves the right to approve funding for some or all of the proposed sub-applicant programs.
