The Jackson Soil and Water Conservation District (JSWCD) is accepting applications for its 2026 Community Conservation & Education (CCE) Grant. The program offers up to $10,000 per project for activities serving Jackson County, Oregon, that both improve priority natural resources and include meaningful community education or outreach.
Eligible applicants: nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, Tribal government agencies and government organizations working on projects located in and benefiting Jackson County. Applicants may not have another JSWCD CCE grant still open. Projects must benefit soil health, water conservation, water quality, ecosystem function, forest health and/or riparian health, and must include an educational component. Collaborative partnerships are encouraged.
Funding and cost rules: No matching contribution is required. Grants reimburse approved project costs, typically in a single disbursement after completion; one or two incremental reimbursement payments may be arranged in advance. Costs incurred before the January 2027 grant agreement is finalized are ineligible. The district excludes administrative work preparing grant paperwork, indirect costs, personal expenses, unrelated spending and unauthorized changes of scope. Staff labor, appropriately quoted contractor services, supplies, reasonable travel and contingency may be budgeted when eligible. Use the required official CCE budget template.
