2023 Community Tourism Action Plan (CTAP) Grant Program
We are extremely proud and excited to share a new grant opportunity, for small or large projects, that will impact the county's visitor economy, that any public, private or non-profit organization can take advantage of. While there are many purposes for these CTAP grants, the primary purpose is to add vibrancy to the communities in Kankakee County and to generate new economic impact through visitation by non-residents.
