This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations in Flint that empower youth and families through programs focused on resilience, mental health, and trauma-informed care.

The Flint ReCAST Mini-Grant Program is now accepting proposals for 2025. This grant initiative, part of the Resiliency in Communities After Stress and Trauma (ReCAST) program, is focused on supporting youth-serving programs that enhance resilience, equity, and trauma-informed practices within the Flint community. The program aims to provide financial assistance to organizations that empower youth and families in Flint through initiatives that promote positive development, mental health awareness, and trauma-informed care.

The grant awards range from $5,000 to $25,000, with the application period opening on February 18, 2025, and closing on March 21, 2025, at 5:00 PM. Funded programs will be supported during the funding period from April 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025. Eligible projects must align with one of two primary goals: Youth Engagement & Positive Development, which includes activities such as mental health promotion, career development, and peer support, or Trauma-Informed & Behavioral Health Services, which encompasses resiliency training, mental health literacy, and self-care awareness.
