Beginning July 1, 2025, public agencies, nonprofits, and community groups can get grants for public outdoor programs, activities, or infrastructure. Projects may teach people about outdoor recreation or improve public access. Funded work must promote public health and wellness, improve care for cultural or natural resources, or grow Nevada’s outdoor recreation economy while supporting conservation.
Beginning July 1, 2025, grants fund outdoor learning for pupils and student-focused outdoor infrastructure. Programs must give hands-on time in nature and teach about the environment, agriculture, or natural resources. They must aim to improve grades, health, confidence, responsibility, or community ties. Projects that build or improve access for students also qualify. Grants mainly serve students who get free or reduced-price meals, an alternative measure set by the State Board of Education, or who are most likely to fail or drop out.
Beginning July 1, 2025, Nevada has a 12-member Advisory Board on Outdoor Recreation, plus two nonvoting federal members. The Lieutenant Governor or a designee chairs the board. Members include leaders from key state agencies, one county member from a county under 100,000 people, and four public members for industry, conservation, education, and public health. The board meets at least once a year. A majority of voting members is a quorum, and a majority present can act. The board advises the Division of Outdoor Recreation on the grant program.
Starting July 1, 2025, the Division of Outdoor Recreation runs the grant program and sets the rules. The Administrator sets who can apply, how to apply, and how grants are reviewed. Pupil program priorities include cutting failure and dropout rates, using research-based lessons, promoting healthy lifestyles, using state parks and staff, serving more students, offering direct nature time, and reporting results. Applicants are also judged on matching funds, in-kind support, and partnerships. Public program choices consider how well projects match state, regional, or local outdoor recreation or economic plans.
