NYSP2I’s Community Grants Program provides support for projects that raise awareness and understanding and lead to implementation of pollution prevention practices and/or behaviors at the local level with the goal of improving the health, environmental quality, and economic vitality of New York State communities.
To be eligible for a Community Grant, organizations must have non-profit status and be based in New York State. Eligible organizations may include, but are not limited to:
- organizations with a focus in environmental, public health, or occupational health protection
- academic institutions
- neighborhood associations
- environmental justice organizations
- community development corporations
- health centers
- local unions and labor organizations
In addition to new projects, NYSP2I also encourages the expansion or replication of past projects. Please review past project summaries to determine whether any are replicable in your community. Past applicants are also welcomed to apply for funding to expand past projects.
Applications due October 10, 2014
