The Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) is offering grants to Santa Clara County municipalities, jurisdictions, arts, cultural, education, nonprofit, and community organizations to advance its vision of equitable Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC). This program aims to foster innovative and robust partnerships between VTA and local public agencies, nonprofits, community organizations, and diverse stakeholders. The overarching mission alignment is to support the implementation of equitable Transit-Oriented Communities within Santa Clara County, focusing on creating sustainable, inclusive, and transit-friendly environments. The grant program targets communities and organizations located within a half-mile radius of existing and planned VTA light rail stations, VTA transit centers, BART stations, and commuter rail stations served by Caltrain, ACE, and/or Capitol Corridor. The primary beneficiaries are residents and businesses within these transit-rich areas, particularly those with limited incomes, and community organizations striving to make these areas more equitable. Impact goals include empowering and strengthening communities, increasing transit ridership, reducing reliance on car trips, and supporting intensive mixed-use, mixed-income development around transit hubs. The program prioritizes projects that support collaboration and fall under four key areas: Planning and Policy Implementation, Community Resilience, Education & Engagement, and Placemaking, Arts, and Activation. Planning and Policy Implementation focuses on advancing policies and regulations for equitable TOCs, including station area planning and equitable development plans. Community Resilience emphasizes anti-displacement efforts, affordable housing preservation, small business support, and promoting transit use among low-income individuals. Education & Engagement aims to increase community leadership and participation in TOC implementation through advocacy, capacity building, and culturally relevant engagement practices. Placemaking, Arts, and Activation seeks to improve the transit rider and community experience through public arts, cultural projects, and beautification initiatives that enhance safety and accessibility. Expected outcomes include a significant increase in the adoption and implementation of equitable TOC policies and plans, tangible progress in anti-displacement efforts and affordable housing, enhanced community capacity and participation in transit-oriented development, and improved public spaces around transit stations. Measurable results will include the number of selected projects (14-20 projects are anticipated), the amount of funding distributed (up to $15,000 to $175,000 per project), and the commencement of projects between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025. The VTA's strategic priorities are clearly centered on fostering equitable development, encouraging transit ridership, and building strong community partnerships as a core theory of change to achieve sustainable and inclusive transit-oriented growth in Santa Clara County.

The Clean Water Grant Program (CWGP), offered by the County of Cumberland, Pennsylvania, provides financial support for "shovel-ready" initiatives aimed at enhancing local water quality within Cumberland County. While the description doesn't explicitly state a "foundation mission alignment" or "foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change," it can be inferred that the program aligns with broader environmental stewardship and public health goals, likely stemming from the county's responsibility to manage and improve local resources. The program's core objective is to maximize the impact of limited pollution reduction funding by investing in priority water quality projects. The target beneficiaries of the CWGP are diverse, including non-profit 501(c) organizations, municipal governments, educational institutions, and businesses with headquarters in Cumberland County. The impact goals are directly tied to improving local water quality. The program focuses on developing a water quality project backlog to leverage additional funding, pursuing multifaceted pollution reduction strategies with various stakeholders, accelerating progress toward county pollution reduction goals, and institutionalizing an annual project identification process integrated into county CAP development plans. The priorities and focuses of the CWGP revolve around "shovel-ready" projects that deliver tangible water quality improvements. While there is no minimum or maximum grant award, projects with a local match will receive higher priority, indicating a preference for initiatives that demonstrate community investment and shared responsibility. The program anticipates approximately $500,000 will be available for subawards in 2025, with funding decisions at the sole discretion of Cumberland County and contingent upon PADEP approval. Expected outcomes and measurable results include enhanced local water quality, increased leveraging of additional government and nonprofit funding for water quality projects, a more coordinated approach to pollution reduction among various stakeholders, accelerated progress towards county-wide pollution reduction targets, and a sustainable, integrated annual process for identifying and developing water quality initiatives. The grant period for performance is from March 2025 to December 2025, emphasizing a focus on projects that can demonstrate impact within a relatively short timeframe.

This initiative aligns with OSSE's Start Early strategic priority and aims to meet Head Start Program Performance Standards (HSPPS) and achieve QIN program goals. The grant seeks organizations, institutions, and agencies with the capacity to provide comprehensive EHS services. The purpose of the QIN hub grant is to deliver high-quality and comprehensive services to participating QIN child care partners (CCPs), encompassing eligibility, recruitment, selection, enrollment and attendance (ERSEA), early education and child development, health, family engagement, and disabilities. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are EHS-eligible children, families, and CCPs across all Wards of the District. The hub model can be implemented through child development centers, child development homes/expanded child development homes, or a combination of both. The impact goals include ensuring access to high-quality early childhood education and development, promoting family engagement, and providing necessary support for children with disabilities. The program prioritizes delivering services directly or through contractual agreements, ensuring a District-wide reach for EHS services. The grant focuses on several key areas, including early childhood education, EHS, financial management, quality assurance, and ongoing monitoring of program deliverables. Eligible applicants, including non-profits, for-profits, and faith-based organizations, must demonstrate expertise and previous experience in providing supports related to education and child development, health, family engagement, transition services, disability services, program management, quality improvement, and human resources within the District’s early care and education system.

Expected outcomes include improved child development and health outcomes for EHS-eligible children, enhanced family engagement in their children's education, and a strengthened early care and education system within the District. Measurable results will be tied to the successful implementation of ERSEA, delivery of comprehensive services, and the effectiveness of training and technical assistance provided to CCPs. The program also expects to see increased capacity among child development centers and homes to meet HSPPS. This grant represents OSSE's strategic priority to "Start Early" by investing in foundational early childhood programs, with the theory of change being that comprehensive and high-quality EHS services delivered through a well-supported hub will lead to long-term positive developmental outcomes for children and families.
