Request for Proposals
The Missouri Children’s Trust Fund (CTF) Board of Directors is pleased to announce the availability of up to $2 million in funding over a four year period for its Safe Sleep Grant Program.
The first cycle of funding in the amount of up to $500,000 will be awarded in State Fiscal Year 2022 (July 1, 2021-June 30, 2022) to support eligible programs/communities, with up to three additional years of funding for approved projects.
These grants are designed to support initiatives to prevent and reduce the risks of sleep-related infant deaths.
