There are essentially only 3 sources for grants.
Federal grants are called Small Business Innovation Research grants. These are given primarily for some new innovation. You can find out what's available at http://www.sbirworld.com. There is also info on this site about how to apply.
Some cities offer grants to small businesses if they will locate in the downtown area, for the purposes of building up downtown traffic. Check with City Hall.
Finally, private foundations offer grants. You can get a list of most US Foundations and private grant sources at http://www.foundations.org/grantmakers.html.

Ryan, not sure what you mean by a small business grant? Typically there are small business loans that you can apply for.
Log onto www.sba.gov.
This website is loaded with lots of stuff about forming a small business.
Best of luck to you.
