Deadline: 31-Dec-21
Applications are now being accepted for the 2021-22 Capacity Grant Program as announced by the Children, Seniors and Social Development, Disability Policy Office and Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. This is just one initiative of many that demonstrates the Provincial Government’s commitment to supporting inclusive and accessible communities.
The Capacity Grant Program is designed to help non-profit community-based organizations, incorporated municipalities, and Indigenous governments and organizations prevent and remove barriers to inclusion.
These Capacity Grants are crucial to enable persons with disabilities to become fully engaged in their community and to lead transformative change towards more independence, self-management and genuine community inclusion. The enduring legacy of a capacity grant will be its impact over the long term and how it has affected the lives of persons with disabilities.
