Defense Community Infrastructure Program is run by Department of Defense. From fiscal 2021 to 2025 it awarded $170 million in 20 grants, about $8.5 million per award.

## Objectives

Assist state and local governments with addressing deficiencies in community infrastructure to, in order of priority, enhance military value (to include critical infrastructure), cadet training at covered educational institutions, installation resilience, or military family quality of life. Projects must be supportive of a military installation. Community infrastructure means any transportation project; school, hospital, police, fire, emergency response, or other community support facility; or water, wastewater, telecommunications, electric, gas, or other utility infrastructure project that is located off a military installation and owned by a state or local government.
