What We Are Looking For
Applicants should clearly identify an opioid-related need in Noble County and explain how their proposed initiative will address that need.
Applications should include specific and measurable outcomes, an evaluation plan, project partners, a sustainability plan, a detailed project budget, and information about how grant funds will be used.
Projects must provide a clear connection between the proposed services and approved opioid remediation activities. Applications without clear alignment will not be considered.
