Interested in joining the Council?
NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!
The Wyoming Governor's Council on Developmental Disabilities is currently accepting applications for the Bright Ideas Grant.
All applications are due prior to January 12, 2024.
Grants are effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.
The purpose of the Mini-Grant is to facilitate new and innovative projects and/or activities in the state that will empower people with developmental disabilities and their families.
Projects or activities funded by a Mini Grant must fulfill the Council’s stated purpose and vision. The project must be innovative. This means the project should introduce something new, or make changes in something established, especially by introducing new methods or ideas. Durable goods and direct services cannot be funded.
The WGCDD is granting $75,000 for the 2024-25 grant period. Grant amounts can range from $1,000.00 up to $35,000 per project.
