In partnership with the New Jersey League of Municipalities, the Quality Institute’s Mayors Wellness Campaign (MWC) is issuing a request for proposals focused on addressing community mental health needs. Programs can address mental health, substance use, intimate partner violence, and/or stigma. There will be up to 10 awards totaling $67,500.

Eligible municipalities can apply for funding amounts of $5,000, $10,000, or $15,000.

 

Eligible Applicants:

  • A New Jersey municipal government agency.
  • Part of the Mayor's Wellness Campaign (if you are unsure if your municipality is part of the MWC or to sign up, reach out to kbisaha@njhcqi.org.)
  • Only one application per municipality will be accepted.

If the municipality received a 2024 MWC Mental Health Initiative Grant, they must be in good standing on current grant requirements to apply.
