The Local Infrastructure Hub is offering a virtual bootcamp and workshop series to assist small and mid-sized cities, towns, and villages focused with applying for federal infrastructure funding.

• Railroad Crossing Elimination Grant Program and Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Program
• Brownfields Program

Each bootcamp is made up of 5-6 modules which are tailored to specific funding opportunities. Bootcamps last 3 months each and require regular participation. Participants will receive support to develop competitive federal grant applications with access to subject matter experts, office hours, data resources, individualized coaching sessions, and peer-to-peer learning. Workshops are intensive, half-day sessions focused on targeted, grant-specific training with access to tools, guidance, and peer-to-peer support.

The program is designed for mayors and municipal staff with a wide range of job functions, including infrastructure management, budget, grants management, community engagement, and others from small and mid-sized cities, towns, and villages with 150,000 or fewer residents.
