Streamlined funding opportunities for St. Lucie County agencies
Children’s Services Council of St. Lucie County continuously strives to support its community partners in the most effective ways possible. After listening closely to the feedback from applying agencies, the organization has announced a significant improvement in the funding process.
This year, CSCSLC will release the full scope of all available funding opportunities at once!
By sharing all funding opportunities simultaneously, the aim is to provide agencies with the comprehensive information they need, allowing ample time for thoughtful planning and application submission. This change will make the process more transparent, equitable, and manageable for everyone involved.
CSCSLC values the incredible work that our local agencies do to support children and families in our community, and is committed to providing the resources necessary to help you succeed.
The Priority Funding Opportunity proposal application requires applying agencies to demonstrate how their proposed program’s primary focus and program impact (outcomes) are directly aligned with the following community indicators: Infant Mortality, Low Birth Weight, Prenatal Care, Immunizations and Uninsured Children.
Proposals will be submitted via our online platform, The Hub. Bidder’s Conferences for this proposal will be MANDATORY to attend. Two opportunities will be offered. Please register to attend on November 13th or December 11th. Proposals will be due by 11:59 PM on January 24, 2025..
The 2025 Summer Learning proposal application is open to programs who target literacy instruction for elementary school-aged populations and/or career exploration/job readiness for programs working with teenagers.
