Funding Details
Program goal
To improve the effectiveness, responsiveness, and accessibility of mental health services for young people (up to age 26) on Long Island.
Grants are made to
- Address the mental health needs of youth through culturally competent behavioral health services.
- Support mental health programs that strengthen an individual’s capacity to regulate emotions, advance alternatives to risk-taking behaviors, increase ability to manage difficult situations and adversity, and promote supportive social environments.
- Address addictive behaviors through prevention and treatment.
Grants are made for one year at a time; proposals submitted for renewed funding are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, but only after a final report on the use of the previous grant has been received and approved by staff.
