2026 Strategic Grant Cycle
Strengthening Youth & Young Adult Behavioral Health.
Regional data and community input consistently identify youth mental health and substance use disorders as urgent priorities. In response, FFSH seeks proposals from organizations improving behavioral health outcomes for youth and young adults (through age 25) across the Seacoast region of NH and Southern Maine.
We recognize the essential role nonprofit partners play across the behavioral health continuum — from prevention and protective factors to suicide prevention, crisis response, and substance use disorder care. We look forward to learning how your work improves behavioral health outcomes for youth and young adults across our region.
Organizations should address one or more of the following priority areas:
Prevention & Early Intervention
Mental Health Treatment & Crisis Care
Suicide Prevention & Postvention
Substance Use Disorder Prevention, Treatment & Recovery
All proposals must be submitted electronically via our grant application software, Foundant. New applicants will need to create a profile in Foundant. Please refer to the attached RFP for application instructions as well as additional eligibility details — including geographic region, populations served, and mission alignment.
Applications will be open through April 10, 2026.
