Safer Communities Fund Round 5: Early Intervention grants
The objectives of the Safer Communities Fund Round 5: Early Intervention grants are to:
- contribute to the preservation of the safety of Australians through funding local crime prevention activities that address anti-social behaviour and/or racial or religious intolerance by at-risk youth
- help at-risk marginalised young people aged 12 to 25 to develop life skills to prevent them from becoming entrenched in the criminal justice system and to promote inclusion and build community resilience
Grants available are between $200,000 and $3,000,000. The grant amount will be up to 100% of eligible project costs.
You must complete your project by 30 June 2023.
To be eligible you must have an Australian Business Number (ABN) and be:
- a state or territory peak Police Citizens’ Youth Club
- a state or territory peak Bluelight organisation
- Youth Off the Streets Limited
- nominated by the peak organisation in your state or territory to submit an application on their behalf.
If the peak organisation in your state or territory is not able to submit an application, they may nominate one organisation in your state to submit an application, either for one project or on behalf of multiple organisations.
If there are no state or territory peaks in your location, the Program Delegate has discretion to accept an application from one local Police Citizens’ Youth Club or Bluelight organisation in each state.
Additional eligibility requirements
If you have been nominated by the peak organisation in your state or territory to submit an application, we can only accept applications where you:
- can provide evidence of the approval from your state or territory peak organisation to submit an application.
We cannot waive the eligibility criteria under any circumstances.
You are not eligible to apply if you are:
- a local Police Citizens’ Youth Club (unless there is no peak organisation in your state or territory, or you are the only organisation in your state to receive written approval from your state peak to submit an application).
- a local Blue light organisation (unless there is no peak organisation in your state or territory, or you are the only organisation in your state to receive written approval from your state peak to submit an application).
