The Guernsey County Foundation, in partnership with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio, is offering grants to nonprofits, schools, and public organizations. This program aims to benefit Guernsey County residents and communities by funding projects and programs that align with the Foundation's mission of advancing opportunities across five key areas. These areas, known as the Pillars of Prosperity, include arts and culture, community and economic development, education, environmental stewardship, and health and human services. The program is designed to foster local initiatives that address pressing needs and unlock potential within the county. The primary beneficiaries of these grants are individuals of all ages within Guernsey County. The program emphasizes supporting those who are actively leading efforts to create opportunities and meet critical community needs. The impact goals are centered around strengthening the county across the five Pillars of Prosperity, ultimately leading to a more vibrant and prosperous community for all residents. The program's priorities and focuses are clearly defined by the Pillars of Prosperity. This includes supporting cultural enrichment, fostering economic growth and development, improving educational outcomes, promoting environmental sustainability, and enhancing the health and well-being of the population. The Foundation is particularly interested in initiatives that demonstrate a clear strategy for creating lasting positive change within these areas. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed in the provided information, the expectation is that funded projects will contribute tangibly to the advancement of opportunities in the five stated areas. The Foundation's strategic priorities are to empower local individuals and organizations to spearhead impactful efforts, thereby driving community-led solutions. The underlying theory of change is that by investing in these key areas through local initiatives, Guernsey County will experience significant improvements in quality of life and overall community strength. Funding requests range between $500 and $10,000, indicating a focus on supporting a variety of projects, both small and medium in scale, that can collectively contribute to these broader goals.

The Healthy Environment for All (HEAL) Capacity grant program, administered by the Washington State Department of Health, aims to empower community-led decision-making for environmental justice (EJ) and climate resilience. This initiative is directly aligned with the state's broader mission to combat climate change and its disproportionate impacts on vulnerable communities. The program is a direct outcome of the Legislature's mandate to the Department of Health, based on recommendations from the Environmental Justice Council (EJC) Climate Commitment Act (CCA) funding. By focusing on capacity building, the grant seeks to strengthen the ability of communities to engage meaningfully in environmental health decisions, reflecting a strategic priority to foster equitable participation and ownership in addressing environmental challenges. The target beneficiaries of the HEAL Capacity grant program are communities most impacted by environmental hazards. This includes, but is not limited to, Native Nations, Black communities, rural communities, youth, low-income individuals, unhoused populations, disabled individuals, and LGBTQ+ communities. The program's impact goals are to equip these communities with the necessary resources to collaborate effectively with state agencies on environmental health decisions, ultimately advancing environmental justice and building climate resilience. This directly supports a theory of change that by empowering those most affected, more equitable and effective environmental and climate solutions can be developed and implemented. The program offers two distinct funding opportunities: Pass-through funding and Project funding. Pass-through funding invites community-based organizations to sub-grant funds to other community-based organizations working with overburdened communities and vulnerable populations across Washington State. This prioritizes equitable community engagement and participation in HEAL activities. Project funding allows organizations to apply for funds to build organizational and community capacity to provide guidance and input to the Environmental Justice Council on HEAL Act implementation, the Department of Health on environmental health disparities map updates, and state agencies on various HEAL Act implementations, including environmental justice assessments and Tribal engagement. These focuses underscore the program's commitment to both direct community support and systemic influence. Expected outcomes and measurable results include enhanced community-led decision-making, increased capacity of community-based organizations to engage in HEAL activities, and improved collaboration between communities and state agencies on environmental health decisions. The program, supported by Washington’s Climate Commitment Act, also aims to reduce climate pollution, create jobs, and improve public health, reflecting the broader goals of the CCA. With a total funding amount of $11.6 million and estimated awards ranging from $250,000 to $1,000,000, the program seeks to make a significant, measurable impact on environmental justice and climate resilience across Washington State.

The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) is offering the 2025 High-Impact Tutoring (HIT) Local Education Agency (LEA) Grant. This grant aims to support DC public LEAs in establishing, strengthening, and expanding evidence-based tutoring programs within their schools. The core mission of this grant is to address learning acceleration for DC students, with a particular emphasis on those identified as economically disadvantaged. While the foundation's specific strategic priorities and theory of change are not explicitly detailed as separate entities in the provided text, the grant's design implicitly aligns with a theory of change that posits that targeted, high-impact tutoring for at-risk students will lead to improved academic outcomes and reduced educational disparities. The target beneficiaries of the HIT LEA Grant are DC public school students, particularly those who are economically disadvantaged. The grant focuses on helping LEAs implement programs that can provide significant educational support to these students. The impact goals are to launch, strengthen, and expand evidence-based tutoring programs, ultimately leading to improved academic performance and educational equity for the students served. The priorities of the grant clearly revolve around supporting LEAs that demonstrate a commitment to implementing HIT programs, either through existing efforts or plans for the upcoming school year. The grant prioritizes funding for programs that demonstrate a commitment to high-impact tutoring. Eligible LEAs must show prior engagement in implementing HIT programs as a key part of their learning acceleration strategy, which could include staff-led programs, engagement with third-party providers, or participation in professional development for designing HIT programs. Furthermore, the grant specifically targets schools where at least 40% of the student population is economically disadvantaged, or where at least 80% of students in the OSSE grant-supported HIT program are economically disadvantaged. This focus ensures that the funding reaches the students most in need of support. Expected outcomes include the successful establishment and expansion of evidence-based tutoring programs across DC public schools. Measurable results are tied directly to the number of students served and the duration of the tutoring. Funding categories are structured to incentivize longer-term programming, with $1,000 for each student receiving 20 weeks or more of HIT programming, $800 for 16-19 weeks, and an additional $200 for summer programming of 4 weeks or more. This clear metric allows for the tracking of the reach and intensity of the tutoring interventions. Additionally, eligible LEAs are required to ensure that school leadership attends professional development and communities of practice, indicating an expected outcome of enhanced capacity within schools to effectively manage and sustain HIT programs.

This FOA will support integrated, interdisciplinary research teams that focus on examining dynamic circuit functions related to behavior, using advanced and innovative technologies. The FOA will support programs with a necessarily-synergistic, team science approach. Awards will be made for 5 years, with a possibility of one competing renewal. Applications should incorporate overarching principles of circuit function in the context of specific neural systems underlying sensation, perception, emotion, motivation, cognition, decision-making, motor control, communication, or homeostasis. Applications should incorporate theory-/model-driven experimental design and should offer predictive models as deliverables. Applications should seek to understand circuits of the central nervous system by systematically controlling stimuli and/or behavior while actively recording and/or manipulating relevant dynamic patterns of neural activity and by measuring the resulting behaviors and/or perceptions. Applications are expected to employ approaches guided by specified theoretical constructs, and are encouraged to employ quantitative, mechanistic models where appropriate. Applications will be required to manage their data and analysis methods in a framework that will be developed and used in the proposed U19 project and exchanged with other BRAIN U19 awardees for further refinement and development. Model systems, including the possibility of multiple species ranging from invertebrates to humans, can be employed and should be appropriately justified. Programs should employ multi-component teams of research expertise including neurobiologists, statisticians, physicists, mathematicians, engineers, computer scientists, and data scientists, as appropriate - that seek to cross boundaries of interdisciplinary collaboration. Applicants proposing to include human subjects with invasive neural recording must apply to the companion FOA, RFA-NS-XX-XXX.
