The Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust is excited to announce a program entitled “Healthy Places North Carolina”.
Donor Name: Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust
State: North Carolina
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 10/12/2023
Details:
The Trust is interested in supporting the growth of these movements and changing the conversation to ensure that systemically marginalized people are able to lead community change efforts. For the current opportunity, the Trust is interested in assisting groups working for systemic change in food and recreation systems, mitigating adverse childhood experiences, and reducing substance use deaths. Networks in the Southeast and Northeast regions of the state are building new connections across the food system, mapping and addressing adverse childhood experiences and trauma, and shaping how opioid settlement dollars are spent at the local level. The Trust plans to consider proposals that advance these existing efforts.
Goal
Leverage local organizations and networks, especially those based in financially vulnerable regions and communities of color, to promote equity in food and recreation systems, address substance use, and mitigate the impact of adverse childhood experiences.
Strategy
- Build community, network, organizational, and individual capacity so that historically marginalized populations, particularly Black, Immigrant, Indigenous, and other leaders of color can drive community and health improvement efforts.
- Conduct broad-based communications, community education, and advocacy efforts that advance goals.
Geographic Focus
Healthy Places opportunities are focused on Eastern North Carolina, especially underserved areas in the Sandhills, Cape Fear, Tidewater, and Coastal Plain regions.
