Van Ameringen Foundation
Category: Regional
DescriptionThe Foundation funds innovative and practical programs for early intervention, advocacy, and increased accessibility of mental health services for people and communities with limited financial means and opportunities. The Foundation provides general support and project-specific grants in two categories: Direct Service Grants and Non-Direct Service Grants. Direct Service grants are awarded programs and projects that provide a direct service such as case management, assessment, counseling, psychotherapy, psychiatric care, training, or jobs, or housing to people and communities confronting significant mental illness. Non-Direct Services grants are awarded in support of strategies that aim to create changes in the law, public policy, or the perceptions and practices of the public and private sectors responsible for improving mental health care, particularly in unserved or underserved communities; efforts that aim to share research findings, best practices, and knowledge related to improving the mental health safety net and system; and activities that provide learning and skill-building opportunities for mental health providers, advocates, people living with mental illness, policymakers, and family or community members who are seeking to deepen their understanding, knowledge, treatment or social change efforts. The Foundation provides grants exclusively in the five boroughs of New York City and within the city limits of Philadelphia and advocacy support at the national level.
