The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) is a government-wide collection of Federal programs that provide programs, projects, services, and activities. It is offered by various U.S. government agencies to American citizens. It contains a financial and non-financial assistance program managed by departments and establishments of the Federal government.

In the United States, federal assistance, also known as federal aid, federal benefits, or federal funds, is defined as any federal program, project, service, or activity provided by the federal government that directly assists domestic governments, organizations, or individuals in the areas of education, health, public safety, public welfare, and public works, among others.

The assistance, which can reach over $400 billion annually,[1] is provided and administered by federal government agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through special programs to recipients.
