Happy Juneteenth Eve! The big number will go down a fair bit in the next couple weeks as a bunch of Ed money comes off the board on Wednesday, but there’s plenty of new money for paid readers to browse today.
There are more than a dozen new listings this week—and nearly 60 total listings. We’re now in Health and Human Services Sneakily-A-Workforce Grant SZN, with more than $50 million in money with deadlines in mid-July. There also is a whole lot of private money out for applications.
A few highlights of what’s behind the paywall:
Grants for training behavioral health workers, job placement for people with substance-use disorder, and EMTs.
A significantly large new private workforce funding solicitation.
New private money for researching inequality and leadership development for community-building work.
