Fund supports programs that enable all Boulder County community members to thrive

BOULDER, County Colo. – The Boulder County Community Services Department has released the Human Services Fund (HSF) 2023 grant application for community-based human services programs.

Community Services Department anticipates awarding $1.3 million in funding in 2023 to qualified community organizations through a competitive application process. HSF provides programmatic funding in areas such as increased economic stability, mobility and resilience; increased ability for people to obtain and maintain housing; safe environments for people with diverse identities; increased positive physical, mental or behavioral health and wellbeing, and increased healthy behaviors. This work and the application process are a collaborative effort between City of Boulder, City of Longmont and Boulder County Community Services.

Past and current HSF grants benefitting low-income community members include those for academic support, early child development and childcare, health care, legal services for immigrants and domestic violence survivors, programs for LGBTQ+ community members, and older adult services.
