Collective Impact Grant

Collective Impact Grants: Awarded to support community-based local college access networks that are coordinating individuals from broad cross-sector entities within their community to affect larger-scale social change.  Subject to the availability of funds, up to $25,000 annually is available to assist and support these efforts. Collective Impact Grant funds may not be used for scholarships, and the grant period is 12 months. Grants may be renewed beyond the first year pending available funding and reapplication process. LCANs must have been operational by October 1, 2011 and working within the statewide MCAN network in order to be eligible for a Collective Impact Grant.
