The City of Regina is accepting grant applications to increase access to support services to reduce the harm associated with substance use.
$385,000 will be allocated to programs, services and initiatives dedicated to reducing harm.
The maximum available funding is $50,000 under minor funding and $150,000 under major funding.
To be eligible for the grant funding, an organization must be a registered non-profit with a proposed initiative that aligns with one or more of the four priorities in the funding stream: overdose prevention, safe and accessible spaces, safe and inclusive communities, and strengthened support and connections.
“Providing supports that address the needs of our community’s most vulnerable residents creates a safer, healthier and more inclusive community,” the City said.
The deadline to submit applications is June 2, with the funding being distributed in September.
