NASDA Policy Priority: State Cooperative Agreement Funding
Cooperative agreements are a collaborative funding instrument used by federal agencies to provide money to other entities for specific programs that benefit the public. Unlike grants, they involve shared responsibilities and active collaboration between federal agencies and recipient organizations (e.g., state governments, nonprofit organizations and universities). Reductions in funding these cooperative agreements are eroding state programs and infrastructure, putting the integrity and security of the U.S. food supply at risk.
