Details:
NW Children’s Foundation welcomes applications for both general operating and program support. The funding priorities focus on children, youth and families who are in the foster care system, and/or experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, abuse, neglect, and other trauma. The priorities also include funding prevention services that reduce risk factors and promote protective factors to ensure well-being and stability for all children and families.
NWCF is interested in hearing how the intensity, duration and frequency of your program/intervention will prevent and treat the negative impacts of trauma.
Due to funding limitations, they prioritize programs that are responsive to populations already experiencing trauma or who have demonstrated risks which lead to a higher likelihood of potentially experiencing traumatic experiences like homelessness, abuse, and neglect.
