The program aims to foster lifelong enjoyment and health benefits through sports, aligning with MASC's broader mission to promote healthy lifestyles and combat childhood obesity. Established with contributions from the Ironman Community Foundation, individuals, corporations, and annual fundraisers, the grant program is a key initiative of MASC to serve its community. The primary target beneficiaries are Dane County youth, aged 17 and under, who are from populations underserved by existing sports programs. The program's impact goals are to assist children in developing healthy lifestyles by introducing them to sports that match their interests and abilities. This includes combating childhood obesity, creating positive emotional connections, and instilling commitment and daily structure in their lives. Key priorities and focuses for grant consideration include ensuring the child or children served are Dane County residents, aged 17 and under, and from underserved populations. MASC also prioritizes a mutual commitment between the sports program and individuals, and considers a broad scope of sports, including "minor" and individual sports. The quality of the sports program and the alignment of individuals with a suitable sport are crucial. Consideration is also given to the number of people impacted, the non-duplication of efforts, and the potential for program growth and quality maintenance. Transportation requests and capital construction (under specific conditions) are also considered. Expected outcomes include increased participation of underserved youth in sports, leading to the development of healthy lifestyles, improved physical and emotional well-being, and enhanced commitment and daily structure. The program's success is measured by the reach of the grant application, the growth and quality of participating sports programs, and the ability of the programs to meet the interests and abilities of the youth. MASC's strategic priority is to create sustainable opportunities for youth development through sports, with a theory of change centered on the idea that access to appropriate sports activities directly contributes to healthier, more engaged youth in the community.

The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) is offering a grant to establish a hub for Early Head Start (EHS) supports and services. This initiative aligns with OSSE's Start Early strategic priority and aims to meet Head Start Program Performance Standards (HSPPS) and achieve QIN program goals. The grant seeks organizations, institutions, and agencies with the capacity to provide comprehensive EHS services. The purpose of the QIN hub grant is to deliver high-quality and comprehensive services to participating QIN child care partners (CCPs), encompassing eligibility, recruitment, selection, enrollment and attendance (ERSEA), early education and child development, health, family engagement, and disabilities. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are EHS-eligible children, families, and CCPs across all Wards of the District. The hub model can be implemented through child development centers, child development homes/expanded child development homes, or a combination of both. The impact goals include ensuring access to high-quality early childhood education and development, promoting family engagement, and providing necessary support for children with disabilities. The program prioritizes delivering services directly or through contractual agreements, ensuring a District-wide reach for EHS services. The grant focuses on several key areas, including early childhood education, EHS, financial management, quality assurance, and ongoing monitoring of program deliverables. Eligible applicants, including non-profits, for-profits, and faith-based organizations, must demonstrate expertise and previous experience in providing supports related to education and child development, health, family engagement, transition services, disability services, program management, quality improvement, and human resources within the District’s early care and education system. Successful applicants must also have a track record of serving EHS-eligible children, families, and CCPs in Wards 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, and the capacity to leverage community partnerships, establish collaborative relationships, provide technical assistance, and support underserved populations. Expected outcomes include improved child development and health outcomes for EHS-eligible children, enhanced family engagement in their children's education, and a strengthened early care and education system within the District. Measurable results will be tied to the successful implementation of ERSEA, delivery of comprehensive services, and the effectiveness of training and technical assistance provided to CCPs. The program also expects to see increased capacity among child development centers and homes to meet HSPPS. This grant represents OSSE's strategic priority to "Start Early" by investing in foundational early childhood programs, with the theory of change being that comprehensive and high-quality EHS services delivered through a well-supported hub will lead to long-term positive developmental outcomes for children and families.
