Changes to the Community Initiatives Program

Posted on: Jun 23 2009 | Posted in: ACE Announcements

The government of Alberta released new criteria for their Community Initiatives Program (CIP). As part of the changes, $6 million of the CIP has been set aside for small, community-based, human services organizations and international development programs. Criteria for the CIP and the Community Facility Enhancement Program (CFEP) are also being adjusted to reduce duplication with other programs. Changes include the following:

  * applications for playground project grants will be directed to CFEP, which provides financial assistance to build, repair, renovate or otherwise improve community-use facilities throughout the province; and
  * caps will be set on projects that are able to access other government and private funding sources, including a maximum of $10,000 for travel, and $50,000 for school technology projects.

Several changes to the granting process have also been made. For more information, visit: alberta.ca
