Grant Award Wednesday - New Grant Awards Announced!

Today the OneOhio Recovery Foundation announced it has awarded more than $3.7 million in grants to support 10 projects across the state to help combat substance misuse by supporting prevention, treatment and recovery efforts across Ohio.

“We’re confident the programs supported by these grants will be felt in communities throughout Ohio for years to come,” said Alisha Nelson, executive director of the OneOhio Recovery Foundation. “I’m particularly pleased to see big investments in prevention programming, which is key to stopping substance misuse before it starts and lays the foundation for a healthier Ohio future.”

NOTE: Grants announced today should not be considered an exhaustive list.

These 10 new grant awards are part of more than $51 million allocated for the 2024 Regional Grant Cycle and were selected from 1,442 funding requests totaling $581 million from organizations statewide. Grantees were chosen in a collaborative process that included input from the OneOhio Regions, Expert Panel, Grant Oversight Committee and Board of Directors.

The OneOhio Recovery Foundation’s Board of Directors has given preliminary approval for a small number of additional grant awards. This approval authorizes Foundation staff to negotiate grant agreements with recipient organizations, and awards are publicly announced once grantee organizations complete the grant verification process.

All 2024 Regional Grant Cycle awards are expected to be announced by the next Board of Directors meeting scheduled for February 12. A complete list of recipients can be found at OneOhioFoundation.com/GrantAwards.

The 2024 Regional Grant Cycle is just the first of several grant opportunities to come. Organizations and leaders seeking to submit applications in the future can sign-up on the Foundation’s website here to receive updates.
