A funding opportunity from the department is
provided through the Middletown Substance Abuse Prevention Council (MSAPC),
co-chaired by Justin Carbonella of Middletown Youth Services Bureau and Felecia Goodwine-Vaughters of Rushford Center. The MSAPC is releasing its mini-grants for 2013. The grants, which offer a max funding level of $1,000,
may be used to support any substance prevention or youth development programing in
the community. A priority will be given to applications that specifically
address issues of prescription drug and heroin use, as both will be priorities
for the council this upcoming year. All successful grantees will be required to
have a representative join the council which meets on the third Wednesday of
every month at 3pm at the Middletown Youth Services Bureau. All members of
the community are welcomed to join, regardless of planned grant submission.
Information and a downloadable application can be found on
the Youth Service Bureau’s website at http://www.middletownschools.org/page.cfm?p=7525
or by calling MSAPC co-chair Justin Carbonella at the Middletown Youth Services
Bureau at 860-854-6030. The deadline for the very streamlined grant is Wednesday, January 30th, 2013
by 12:00pm and only electronic copies of applications will be accepted.
