The State Clearinghouse (SCH) at the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) serves as the state's Single Point of Contact for the submission of Federal assistance notices pursuant to Presidential Executive Order No. 12372 and State Administrative Manual (SAM) Sections 0911 and 0912. With the signing of Assembly Bill 1348 the State Clearinghouse is responsible for reporting on all federal grants applied for and received in California regardless if they fall under Executive Order 12372. We have developed this on-line database to assist with that reporting.
Please provide your notice here before or at the same time as you apply for the federal grant. These notices must be provided to the SCH, which in turn publishes this information for review by State and local elected officials. The submittal of the SF-424 form on this website begins a 30-day review period. If no comments are received, the SCH will NOT notify the applicant in writing.
The SCH does not administer grant programs or offer any grant funding. Please visit Grants.gov for funding opportunities or sign up for the OPR Federal Grants Update.
State, federal, and local agencies must comply with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements related to the Americans with Disabilities Act for documents posted and made available on internet websites (OPR Accessibility).
