What Is This Program?

The Secure Rural Schools program provides critical funding for schools, roads, and other municipal services to more than 700 counties across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The program was established to support rural counties whose tax base was limited by the growing amount of Federal land. The funding is divided into three distinct categories: Title I for roads and schools, Title II for projects on Federal lands, and Title III for county projects.
