Letter of Support Request Form
Our office can provide your organization with a letter of support for federal grant applications. To request a letter of support, please complete the form below and include a draft letter that we may adapt.
Please note that submitting this form is a request to be considered for a letter of support and does not guarantee approval. Each request will undergo a thorough internal review process. We look forward to reviewing your request.
Additionally, please be advised that only requests submitted at least four weeks before the deadline for the needed letter will be considered. This ensures we have sufficient time to review your request thoroughly and provide the necessary support. Requests received after this period may not be processed.
Unfortunately, we may not be able to consider requests that do not include letters of support from other elected offices. Including these letters demonstrates broader backing for your initiative and strengthens the request for our office’s consideration.
For questions or concerns, please reach out via the link below.
