CAN Council grants are available once a year to organizations who submit winning proposals to prevent child abuse and neglect through programs they are administering. The typical grant is $2,500-$5,000. The Board of Directors names a set of priorities for each year, and organizations whose programs fit these priorities are given first consideration, though all organizations whose primary purpose is to prevent child abuse and neglect can apply.

If your organization is interested in getting on our mailing list to receive notices that grants are available, please email Karmel at coordinator@calhounprevention.org.
