In an exciting development for our community, Dutchess County has recently announced the recipients of its 2024 Agency Partner Grant (APG) Program. This initiative, which provides funding opportunities for local 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, has allocated a total of $1.98 million to support 32 vital programs. These grants are awarded through a competitive process, with a focus on addressing unmet community needs.
Among the deserving recipients of this year’s grants is Community Based Services, Inc., which has been awarded $36,138 to support its Transition Planning Services for Students with IEPs and 504s. This initiative plays a crucial role in educating parents and caregivers about the available programs and resources for students with disabilities who are aging out of school-based programs. Additionally, the program collaborates with schools to reach individuals who may benefit from participation in programs offered by local special needs agencies.
The support provided by the Agency Partner Grant Program is instrumental in strengthening our local communities. From youth development and homeless prevention to workforce development and mental health and wellness, these grants fund programs that address a wide range of critical needs.
“Our Agency Partner Grant Program continues to serve as an important collaboration between local nonprofit organizations and Dutchess County Government to address critical needs in our communities. We thank the Dutchess County Legislature for its ongoing support of the APG program and the agencies that strive every day to improve the lives of our residents.”
As we celebrate this milestone, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the grant recipients and express our appreciation to Dutchess County for its vital support of CBS’ Transition Planning Services. Together, we can continue to build a stronger, more inclusive future for Dutchess County.
