Funding Opportunity in Virginia

Accessing money to implement or expand programs in your center is a challenge. Right now, you can get ready to apply for three years of funding through VTSF. The application is due in October but it will take a while, so we recommend starting early. You can use the funds to implement any of the VTSF approved programs that make sense for your community. Many of you are using Al’s Pals: Kids Making Healthy Choices already. It is a program for kids as young as 3 which develops pro-social skills, self-control, problem-solving abilities and an understanding that they are not to use tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. If you are thinking about it, sign up for the September 10 mandatory meeting of organizations applying for funds. Hope to see you there
