Healthy Living Mini-Grant
The Healthy Living Mini-grant started in 2012 to support organizations in our community to make lasting health changes. Austin Public Health awards mini-grants of up to $2,500 for community projects every year. We have updated this grant to encourage people to continue to create programs and complete projects in new and innovative ways. Virtual services and programs that foster healthy living are being used more now than ever.
