The Mississippi Council on Developmental Disabilities (MSCDD) currently has a grant opportunity available for non-profit, for-profit, education, or government organizations. Approximately $200,000 total funds are available to fund three or more projects. A Request for Proposals for one-year grants starting July 1, 2025 is available at www.mscdd.org. Proposals are due by noon on March 7, 2025.
Projects should feature new ideas to improve the lives of people with developmental disabilities, their families, and their communities. Examples include developing leadership skills; demonstrating new approaches to services in employment, transportation, housing, health, education, early intervention, recreation, or community supports; or providing training or resources to meet their needs, such as planning for future care of aging adults with developmental disabilities.
Funds are provided through the federal Administration for Community Living.
