The Community Services Agency (CSA) Partnership Grant program, initiated by the Board of County Commissioners, addresses human service needs in Seminole County, Florida. This program reflects a strategic priority to collaborate with local non-profit agencies, leveraging their expertise to benefit and improve the quality of life for residents. The core mission alignment is centered on assisting Seminole County residents with specific needs, demonstrating a commitment to community well-being and partnership-driven solutions. The program's theory of change posits that by providing grant funds to qualified non-profit organizations, critical human service gaps can be effectively addressed, leading to an enhanced quality of life for the county's population. The target beneficiaries of the CSA program are the residents of Seminole County who require assistance with specific human service needs. The program's impact goals are to improve the quality of life for these residents by supporting non-profit agencies that deliver direct services. Priorities for funding are given to projects or programs that provide direct services identified as top needs in the 2024 Community Needs Assessment. These top needs include Childcare, Utility Assistance, Mental Health Services, Rental Subsidy/Assistance, Homeless Services, Housing for Homeless Families, Food, and Transitional Housing. The program aims to achieve measurable results by funding initiatives that directly address these identified critical areas within the community. Eligibility criteria for the grant ensure that funds are directed to well-established and responsible non-profit organizations. Agencies must be chartered or authorized to do business in Florida for charitable purposes, possess a 501(c)(3) tax exemption for a minimum of three years, and demonstrate that their services benefit Seminole County residents and address community needs. Priority funding is extended to agencies that align with the Community Needs Assessment. Further requirements include having an uncompensated governing board free of conflicts of interest, established bylaws and policies covering management, audits, fiscal procedures, nepotism, and conflict of interest, and at least one year of experience in providing the requested service. Agencies must also be licensed and accredited. Expected outcomes include a significant improvement in access to essential services for Seminole County residents, particularly in the high-priority areas identified. Measurable results would involve tracking the number of residents served, the types of services provided, and the overall impact on community well-being in the targeted areas. The program strictly defines ineligible activities, such as capital improvement, construction, property or home purchases, and administrative expenses, to ensure that funds are maximized for direct service delivery. Funding limits are also in place, with awards not exceeding twenty-five percent of an agency's prior year's expenditures, based on their IRS 990 form, to promote sustainable and diverse funding for recipient organizations.

The Community Foundation of Huntington County is offering Accessibility Grants to promote inclusivity within communities. This program aligns with the foundation's mission to enhance the quality of life in Huntington County by addressing critical needs, in this case, by removing barriers for individuals with disabilities. The grants aim to create a more welcoming environment for all by fostering solutions to accessibility challenges in buildings and infrastructure, thereby supporting a choice-driven life for individuals with disabilities. The target beneficiaries of these grants include individuals, families, and businesses within Huntington County, Indiana. The program particularly focuses on people with disabilities who are currently facing physical barriers preventing full access to community use and benefits. The impact goals are centered on making communities more inclusive, ensuring that accessibility needs are considered from both individual and community perspectives, and empowering individuals with disabilities to define their own preferences, opinions, priorities, and accommodations. The grant program has two main funding tracks: the Pathfinder Services Community Accessibility Fund and the AWS Foundation Community Accessible Communities Fund. Key priorities and focuses for both tracks include encouraging potential rather than identifying limitations, preferring social settings that include family and friends, exceeding ADA standards through Universal Design principles, and enhancing education and employment potential to contribute to greater independence. Collaboration is also highly encouraged, recognizing that collective effort increases opportunities. Expected outcomes include the physical removal of accessibility barriers, increased participation of individuals with disabilities in community life, and a more inclusive and welcoming environment across Huntington County. Measurable results would likely involve tracking the number of accessibility solutions implemented, the types of infrastructure improved, and anecdotal evidence of increased access and independence for individuals with disabilities. The foundation's strategic priorities are clearly geared towards fostering community well-being and equitable access, and their theory of change posits that by funding direct solutions to accessibility barriers, they can directly improve the lives of individuals with disabilities and create a more inclusive society.
