Strategic Grants

Behavioral Health Strategic Grants ongoing FY22-FY24

Only when we work together can we improve the health of our communities. By tapping into and increasing the community’s capacity for identifying and addressing significant health-related issues, we continue to leverage assets and networks. 

The most effective and positive changes are accomplished through partnerships and collaborations with other organizations focused on common goals. Rarely does one organization have the perspective to see all aspects of how complex problems affect people and very few organizations have the time, money and people to address all aspects of a problem. 

The Legacy Foundation of Southeast Arizona Board identifies a strategic focus and invites community organizations providing services within that focus to apply for funding. Because partnerships are so critical to success, organizations are encouraged to submit applications that reflect collaboration with other organizations. 

 

Emergent Grants

Emergency and urgent needs for nonprofit organizations may occur outside the routine cycles described above. These types of grant requests will be considered on an individual basis.

If your organization has an emergency need call the Legacy Foundation of Southeast Arizona at 520-335-6015 or email info@lfsaz.org

 

Sponsorships

Sponsorship Requests are requests for funds to sponsor a community event. Organization receiving funds agrees to include our logo in media and at the event. Event must be related to health and wellness.  Sponsorship requests are generally granted in the amount of $1,000

DOJ 24CS05: 2023 Resources for the Management of Transgender Individuals in Custody and Under Supervision

No applicants  // Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 1 
 

Only one (1) application will be accepted from a submitting organization.

The transgender population has some very particular issues associated with aspects of the correctional experience, such as housing, classification, and placement; medical and mental health treatment; clothing and grooming; drug testing; and interactions with staff. As a general group, they are also more likely to be victims of sexually abusive acts while in custody according to surveys conducted by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), which indicate that non-heterosexual adults report higher rates of sexual victimization while in custody.

As the last award for LGBTI work was in 2016, NIC is seeking now to refresh and expand the resources that are currently available, focusing on the transgender population specifically. NIC is soliciting proposals from organizations, groups, or individuals to enter into a cooperative agreement for at least a 12-month project period. Work under this agreement will include a literature review, formation of a working group of subject matter experts, a white paper containing findings and recommendations, the updating and development of policy guides, education and training tools, and other resource materials.

Understanding the challenges that transgender people now face is especially relevant to preparing transgender persons for successful reentry and completing successful supervision in the community. It should also be noted that the transgender population is somewhat overrepresented in the criminal legal system due in part to their involvement in activities that can lead to interaction with law enforcement. These activities can include sex work, drug sales and/or use, and other underground economy work cited in the USTS.

Foundational year work for the current project is focused on information gathering and includes a literature review, a review of existing research, legal precedents, federal and state statutes, and administrative rules along with the compiling of a bibliography and recommended glossary. Work will also include the conducting of focus groups with subject matter experts and advocates. This information will be used in the development of self-assessment policy guides for agencies that wish to examine their policies, practices, and training. The convening of a working group of eight to ten subject matter experts to act as content contributors and/or reviewers is a required element of this project. The NIC program manager will assist with the identification and facilitation of this working group.

It is anticipated that the policy guides will be used by individuals from federal, state, and local corrections agencies of all sizes and funding levels, including primarily correctional administrators, medical and mental health staff, and training coordinators. Consequently, the guides must provide sufficient rationale and background information where needed, be easy to understand and convenient to use, and provide resources for further study and follow up. Ultimately, the policy guides will allow users to determine best practices for their specific agency or facility; write policy, procedure, and post orders that will allow implementation and monitoring of these practices; and assist in the development of training and orientation materials.

HS continues to have an increased emphasis on addressing social determinants of health, such as access to adequate food, housing, and transportation, to improve disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes. Based on stakeholder feedback, this FY 2024 HS competition also provides recipients with increased flexibility to tailor interventions to the unique needs of their community and/or target population.

The goals of HS are to:

1) Continue reducing infant mortality rates in the United States, and

2) Decrease disparities in infant mortality and poor perinatal health outcomes in areas where those rates are high.
