Requests may be up to $25,000 for one year, including Healthy Community programs that expand healthcare and behavioral-health access for ALICE households.

FundingUp to $25,000 per organization for a one-year grant period. The current application states that funds are unrestricted and applicants should explain specific planned use such as salaries, programs, supplies, and other costs directly supporting expected outcomes.

Required next actionConfirm the applicant serves at least one eligible county, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit or has a qualifying fiscal sponsor, and is proposing one program that clearly supports ALICE households and one of UWSCI's focus areas. Use the live application portal and current supporting resources, assemble the requested governance and financial documents, and submit by October 16, 2026. Because the public deadline omits a closing time and time zone, confirm the exact portal cutoff before relying on the final day.

Broad Eligibility

Applicant must serve at least one of Brown, Greene, Lawrence, Monroe, Orange, or Owen County; be a 501(c)(3) nonprofit or be fiscally sponsored by one; focus on helping ALICE families and individuals; offer programming aligned with Financial Security, Healthy Community, or Youth Opportunity; and have or commit to adopt a non-discrimination policy. The current process expects one program per agency unless the organization has a narrow mission where the overall operation may be treated as the program.
