On behalf of the Board of Directors for the Louisiana Children’s Trust Fund, I am pleased to announce the release of the 2021-2022 Louisiana Children’s Trust Fund Grant Applications.
For more than 37 years the Louisiana Children’s Trust Fund has worked to prevent child abuse and neglect among Louisiana’s children and families through building strong cross-sector partnerships and increased child safety and public awareness. It is our constant goal to support community based efforts to develop, operate, expand, enhance and coordinate initiatives and programs geared toward the prevention of child abuse and neglect. You can find more information about the grant application process here. 2021-2022 grant applications are due by February 22, 2021. We look forward to receiving your applications as you continue to make Louisiana a safe and brighter place for our children! Katina M. Semien, Esq. Executive Director Louisiana Children’s Trust Fund 1051 North 3rd Street #1-136 Baton Rouge, LA. 70802 Telephone: 225.342.2245 Email: [email protected] Purpose: Each year, the Louisiana Children’s Trust Fund (LCTF) releases a statewide funding opportunity announcement (FOA) to community stakeholders for programmatic and conference reimbursement grants. Grant applications received are first evaluated by the Executive Director for compliance with LCTF requirements. Applications that meet the requirements are then randomly assigned to a volunteer grant review team who are responsible for independently reviewing and scoring the individual applications. The three scores are combined and an average composite score determined. The scores are forwarded to the LCTF Board of Directors’ Grant Review Committee which makes recommendations to the LCTF’s Board of Directors. Those recommendations are then forwarded to the Louisiana Children’s Cabinet for final approval.
Who’s Eligible: Grant reviewers are typically individuals with a child and family or education related background that possess a bachelor’s degree or higher and are willing to commit the necessary time to thoroughly review no more than 5 grant applications. The average grant application is no more than 10-12 pages and usually takes between 30-60 minutes to review and score. Expectations of Reviewers:
