THE OUTDOOR RECREATION TRAILS+ GRANT. Opens July 1, 2023.
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until funding is expended. Access to the outdoors should be low-cost and ubiquitous for all New Mexicans. That’s why lawmakers created the Outdoor Recreation Trails+. This grant program supports projects that enhance communities’ outdoor recreation opportunities. Trails, river parks, wildlife viewing areas, and more contribute to economic development, prosperity, and wellness. This grant funds shovel-ready projects that directly add to that access.
