The UWSWI Mental Health Pathway Grant seeks to improve access to behavioral health supportive services and behavioral health awareness and skill-building opportunities for low-income people in Spencer, Vanderburgh and/or Warrick Counties.
Applicants must be either an IRS registered 501(c) 3 organization in good standing, or a community group with a 501(c)3 organization in good standing serving as its fiscal agent/sponsor.
There will be 2 funding tracks for the spring 2024 grant:
• Funding for programs providing individualized behavioral health services by a licensed mental health provider
• Funding for programs providing mental health education or skill-building
The minimum request is $50,000. Non-profit service providers are welcome to apply to either or both funding tracks.
Watch the video below for details on the grant and how to set up “digital office hours” if you have questions.
Financial considerations and insurance are significant factors in low-income populations’ ability to obtain the mental health care they need. Fortunately, nonprofits can help fill the gaps with sliding scale and income-based services. Our funded partners at Catholic Charities Diocese of Evansville are an example. Catholic Charities counseling staff provides mental health services for individuals, couples, and families at an affordable rate, which takes in consideration family income and number of dependents. United Way funding is focused on helping increase the capacity of the counseling staff to serve more clients.
