Annual Funding Cycle

We are excited to announce that our Board of Commissioners has officially adopted a new Strategic Plan for 2025 – 2028. This plan reflects our ongoing commitment to better serve our community by focusing on the most pressing needs and refining our approach to creating meaningful impact.

Updated Priority Areas

As part of this new strategic direction, we have updated our priority areas to ensure that our resources and efforts are aligned with the evolving needs of our community:

Funding Priority Areas
Mental Health (Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults) Programs that support the mental well-being of youth and young adults, including both clinical and non-clinical services.
Access to Direct Healthcare Services

Projects that expand access to essential medical and dental care for underserved populations.

Food Security (by invitation only) While no longer a central focus of open funding, Verdant will continue supporting food security initiatives through ongoing contracts with trusted partners.

To learn more about these priorities, including examples of programs and services Verdant supports, we encourage applicants to read Verdant’s Strategic Plan for 2025-2028  before deciding whether to submit a proposal.

Our funding is awarded through our annual funding cycle. If approved for funding the contract term is for one year, January to December.  Partners must re-apply for funding on an annual basis. Applications for this funding opportunity must meet our established criteria and be submitted using our Grant Portal.  Please refer to our Funding Guidelines for more details on completing your application.
