State of Indiana Grants Management System
In 2023, the State of Indiana adopted a new grants management system called Euna Grants. Part of a larger initiative to improve grants management in Indiana, Euna Grants will track grants from application to closeout, establishing a more effective framework for managing grants. All state agencies are required to use this new grant management system to manage state and federal grants and fulfill their federal grant recipient monitoring responsibilities.
Applications will be submitted electronically through the Euna Grants Portal, and successful applicants will receive their award notices via Euna Grants. Following receipt of their award, subrecipients will use Euna Grants to manage their grants, including submitting activity reports, requesting reimbursement, and conducting grant close-out activities.
For training materials, technical support, and other information about Euna Grants, please visit the Indiana State Budget Agency website at www.in.gov/sba/grants.
