Deadline: 5-December-2025
This funding opportunity presents a timely chance for community-based organisations and non-profits to develop and implement practical, context-relevant programmes that respond to urgent mental health and substance-use challenges in Nunavut’s communities.
The initiative seeks proposals from organisations that can deliver innovative approaches and supports to reduce risk and build wellbeing among residents. Projects could address community awareness, intervention services, peer support networks, culturally relevant programming, or supplier capacity building to strengthen prevention, response, and recovery systems. The goal is to empower communities, strengthen protective factors, and improve outcomes for individuals, families and neighbourhoods.
Applicants will need to demonstrate how their proposed activities align with the needs of Nunavut’s populations and will have measurable impact. The programmes should reflect local cultural understanding, engage community stakeholders, and be delivered in ways that are accessible and relevant to remote and northern contexts. By participating, organisations have the opportunity to secure resources to expand or develop prevention services, build collaborations, and support long-term resilience in the face of complex public-health challenges.
This funding opportunity represents a meaningful investment in mental health and substance-use prevention in Nunavut. By applying, eligible organisations can partner with government and communities to carry out initiatives that promote hope, wellness and a stronger social foundation across the territory.
