Grants

Partners in Prevention and our other community grants programs support innovative and effective strategies that build strong families and communities in order to prevent child abuse and neglect. 40 community teams are currently participating in Partners in Prevention.

Good Beginnings Mini-Grants

The Good Beginnings Mini-Grants support one-time projects and serve as a catalyst for community-based prevention activities across the state. The guiding principle is that preventing child abuse is everyone’s business and success depends upon organizations, agencies, community groups and individuals working together.
