Grants for City or township governments - Safety

The van Ameringen Foundation focuses on improving mental health services, particularly for those with limited financial means, within New York City and Philadelphia, and through national advocacy. Its mission is to increase accessibility to mental health services, offer preventive and early-intervention strategies, and advocate for systemic change. The foundation offers both general support and project-specific grants, aligning its funding directly with its core mission of fostering a more equitable and effective mental healthcare system for underserved populations. The primary beneficiaries of these grants are individuals and communities confronting significant mental illness, particularly those with limited financial means and opportunities. This includes people needing direct services like case management, counseling, psychotherapy, and psychiatric care, as well as those who benefit from systemic changes in law, public policy, and public perception. The impact goals are to enhance the mental health safety net, improve access to services, and create lasting, positive changes in mental healthcare delivery and perceptions. The foundation's priorities and focuses are clearly delineated into two main categories: Direct Service Grants and Non-Direct Service Grants. Direct Service Grants support programs that provide immediate and tangible assistance to individuals, such as housing, jobs, and various forms of mental health treatment. Non-Direct Service Grants encompass advocacy efforts to change policies, media/dissemination projects to share best practices and research, and training initiatives for mental health providers, advocates, and community members. The foundation explicitly does not fund programs for intellectual or physical disabilities, direct grants to individuals, endowment campaigns, capital projects, annual fundraising drives, or international activities. Expected outcomes include increased accessibility of mental health services, successful implementation of preventive and early-intervention strategies, and significant systemic changes with local or national impact. Measurable results could include the number of individuals served, improvements in patient outcomes, policy changes enacted, increased public awareness, and the number of mental health professionals trained. The foundation encourages innovative and practical proposals that demonstrate a clear path to achieving these outcomes. The foundation's strategic priorities are centered on fostering innovation and practical solutions within the mental health sector. Its theory of change posits that by investing in direct services, advocating for policy reforms, disseminating knowledge, and building capacity through training, it can effectively address disparities in mental healthcare access and quality. This multi-pronged approach aims to create both immediate relief for individuals and long-term structural improvements in the mental health landscape, primarily within its specified geographic areas and at a national advocacy level.

The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) operates with a foundational mission deeply rooted in promoting civil rights and racial equity while fostering a strengthened justice system. The purpose of this specific solicitation is not for new projects but rather to invite organizations to apply for continuation funding to sustain specific, ongoing initiatives championed by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA). This grant mechanism is designed to reinforce previously successful, funded projects, ensuring continuity and stability in efforts aligned with the OJP's core values. The OJP’s strategic priorities clearly define the target beneficiaries and core focus areas. The work is explicitly designed to increase access to justice, support crime victims, and assist individuals impacted by the justice system. Furthermore, significant attention is given to strengthening community safety and protecting the public from both existing and evolving threats. The overarching priorities that guide these initiatives include the advancement of civil rights, the realization of racial equity, and the critical objective of building trust and positive relationships between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. Consistent with the principles of effective investment, the solicitation itself represents a strategic priority of maintaining successful, data-driven interventions. The continuation funding model implies a Theory of Change centered on sustained impact, where initial investments that have demonstrated progress are prioritized for ongoing support to achieve long-term systemic change. This approach minimizes administrative churn and focuses resources on maturing initiatives that directly address the core mission. The exclusive nature of the application, limited only to those who received a direct letter from BJA, underscores this commitment to continuity and existing partnership performance. The expected outcomes and measurable results are inherently tied to the continuation of the original project’s goals, with the anticipation of sustained or improved performance in the targeted areas. By supporting the original project guidelines and funding rules, the OJP seeks tangible results such as demonstrably improved access to justice services, quantifiable increases in community-police trust, and measurable progress in advancing civil rights and racial equity within the justice sphere. Ultimately, the outcome is the continued progression toward a safer and more equitable society, driven by BJA initiatives that have already proven their value.
