The Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation’s deadline for Defense Community Infrastructure Program proposals is coming soon on July 3.

DCIP was designed with ADC’s support to provide funding for projects that support all parts of military communities, not just projects on the base.

“This program benefits and supports the readiness and lethality of our military installations as well as our service members and their families and the defense communities they live and work in,” according to the program’s website, where you can also learn more and submit a proposal.
