Small Grants Program Details

The purpose of the Small Grants Fund is to build the capacity of the service system to respond to issues affecting the health and well-being of women.

Applicants will need to describe how their proposal(s) will contribute to on-going service system development and enhancement.

Grants of up to $1,000 may be available for projects that are congruent with the key strategies and can demonstrate sustainable capability and improvement in service provision and choices for women.

Applicants will need to:

  •   Describe how the proposal is "capacity building" and,
  •   Identify the key strategies (see below) to which it relates (may be one or more!)

Should your women's health project/development submission receive funding, you will be asked to provide brief comments in relation to outcomes, and whether the project/development Aims and Objectives were satisfied. Therefore please indicate how you are planning to evaluate the effectiveness of the program/activity.
