NCST announces small grant program: Breaking New Ground

The NCST is pleased to announce the launch of a new small grant program: Breaking New Ground. Designed to support communities working to better address the mobility needs of culturally and ethnically diverse elders, the program will award four to six grants of $10,000 to $20,000 each for 6-9 month projects. Only private, non-profit or governmental agencies may apply. Check the NCST site for application information and additional details starting November 15. Contact Lynn Winchell-Mendy, NCST technical assistance associate, with any questions about the program. Organizations interested in applying may find the NCST publication, Everyone Rides and the Administration on Aging’s Toolkit for Serving Diverse Communities of value.
