FUNDING OPPORTUNITY
Vital Strategies is partnering with Frontline Solutions to request proposals from organizations led and powered by Black, Indigenous, and Latine communities in North Carolina that are seeking to adopt or deepen the use of harm reduction principles to reduce the incidence of negative health effects and the number of fatal overdoses among Black, Indigenous, and Latine people who use drugs (PWUD).
This funding initiative will award grants of $25,000 and $50,000, with total funding available set at $500,000. Funding will be for one year, with projects starting in January 2025. Organizations can only apply for one grant funding amount.
FUNDING ELIGIBILITY

A 501(c)(3), a business, a Tribal government, or a fiscally-sponsored organization
