As we end the calendar year, our stakeholders know: this means that the MHAA Grant Cycle is about to begin! We understand that the MHAA grant application will look very different this year, as MHAA staff members work hard to simplify the application, after last year's stakeholders provided the feedback that the application's complexity was a significant barrier. The application and this year's process are set to be announced one week from today, on December 20. The due date for the Intent to Apply form for the FY2024 grants will be January 31, 2023. It's time to prepare! Do you have a project in mind? Please call Carol Benson, Chesapeake Crossroads's Executive Director to discuss your project, or send an e-mail to [email protected] to make an appointment for a meeting (zoom or in-person). Use our template for priority projects for our "Appendix C" document for our Five-Year Plan -- and include this project in the list! Stakeholders should all fill this out and send it back to the e-mail listed above, so we can include your priorities among our own! Questions? Please call Dr. Benson at 410-627-6018. Thanks! bit.ly/3BxmbGs
