Residents and small, not-for-profit community groups aiming to reduce violence and support youth programs can apply for Durham Region’s Community Micro-Grants through the Building Safer Communities Grants Program.
Applications to receive funding are open, Durham officials announced, as of February 10, and should align with the Durham Region Community Safety and Well-Being (CSWB) Plan and Durham Region’s Strategic Plan. The CSWB Plan aims to support safety in communities and addresses needs related to education, health care, food, housing, income, and cultural expression.
Applications for Community Micro-Grants opened yesterday and will close on March 28, at 11:59 pm.
How to apply: Applicants can review the Application Guidelines and complete the application form available on Your Durham. Completed applications must be submitted to cswb@durham.ca.
Results of the applications will be announced in late May, and the project implementation period will begin from June 1 to December 31.
Information sessions will be held in February and March for interested applicants. Details and additional information about the grant program are available on Your Durham.
