for Transition-Age Youth of Color and their Families

Request for Letters of Interest

This funding opportunity request is now closed. If you have questions, please read the Frequently Asked Questions.

The Hogg Foundation for Mental Health invites eligible organizations in Texas to respond to the request for Letters of Interest (LOI) for the Pathways for Success initiative. The goal of the initiative is to increase opportunities for success of transition-age youth of color (ages 14-24) and their families (TAYCF) by strengthening their mental health and well-being. Through this initiative, the foundation intends to fund Black, Indigenous, and/or people of color (BIPOC)-led organizations with a history of providing culturally responsive programs, resources, and support for TAYCF. The foundation is particularly interested in organizations that have supported TAYCF during this time of heightened racial injustice, race-related trauma, and the pandemic.

For simplicity and to minimize the burden on potential applicants, the foundation has chosen to use a two-stage process to select the proposed programs most aligned with the initiative.

In partnership with the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, the foundation plans to offer up to $54,000 to each awarded grant partner. This funding opportunity will be offered over two years, for up to ten eligible organizations, governmental entities and/or educational institutions, ready to launch or expand existing programs, resources and support for TAYCF in their communities.

Please read the Request for Letters of Information document carefully before submitting a Letter of Interest. Applicants are encouraged to frequently refer to the grant opportunity webpage for the most current information. Here are the important key dates:
