Consumer Led Initiative Grants 2008-2009
The Mental Health Branch of the Department of Health is interested in supporting (one time) Mental Health Consumer- Led Projects that will be directed toward education, research to inform decisions, advocacy, or seed money to start self-supporting projects.
These grants must not be used for operational expenses of programs already in place. It is important to provide evidence that consumers support and are involved in all areas of
the project. Further, it is important that your District Health Authority is aware of and supports such a project.
