These funding opportunities address The Colorado Trust’s strategic plan focus areas of food, housing, and mental and behavioral health.

Overview

In alignment with The Colorado Trust’s 2024-26 Strategic Plan, the Community Resilience Initiatives are three-year investments addressing the strategic plan’s focus areas of food, housing, and mental and behavioral health. All of these emerged during the planning process as top priorities in communities across Colorado. Each initiative has distinct objectives, but all seek to bolster entities working to respond effectively and locally to disruptions in communities resulting from economic downturns, social turbulence, public health crises, or a lack of coherent or effective public policy.

The Community Resilience Initiatives include seven (7) competitive grant initiatives:

  1. Accessing Healthy Foods
  2. Building Food Systems
  3. Capacity Building Assistance
  4. Diverse Approaches to Behavioral Health
  5. Expanding Access to Behavioral Health
  6. Sustaining Housing Solutions
  7. Policy and Advocacy

All Community Resilience Initiatives awards have been made, and The Colorado Trust is actively supporting the success of the 83 grantees. Please click through the initiatives linked below to learn more about the work of the Community Resilience Initiatives grantees.
