We fund organizations and projects which disrupt our current behavioral health space and create impact at the individual, organizational, and societal levels.
We support local grassroots organizations that are working to advance recommendations outlined in the Think Bigger Do Good Policy Series.
Our participatory grantmaking alters the traditional process of philanthropic giving by empowering service providers and community-based organizations to define the strategy around a specific issue area or population.
We provide funds at below-market interest rates that can be particularly useful to start, grow, or sustain a program, or when results cannot be achieved with grant dollars alone.

We support local grassroots organizations that are working to advance recommendations outlined in the Think Bigger Do Good Policy Series.
Policy and practice must work in tandem to drive critical systems changes. The Think Bigger Do Good Policy Paper Series provides policy solutions to our nation’s most pressing behavioral health issues. Though public policy has broad and deep impacts for families and communities, public policy discussions often occur without those most affected at the table.
This grant program will support local, grassroots organizations that are working directly with communities to address issues that relate to, inform, and advance the policy discussions outlined in this series. Each grant cycle will focus on a different paper, or set of papers.
The application period has now closed.
