The Alliance’s goal to review all applications submitted must be balanced against the obligation to ensure equitable treatment of all applications. For this reason, applications must be received via the Alliance Good Grants portal.

The Alliance reserves the right to cancel this request for applications, in whole or in part, in alignment with available funding. In the event such an action is taken, notice of such action will be posted on the Menu of Supports website.

All applicant communications or questions concerning this grant cycle must be directed to menuofsupports@ohiochildrensalliance.org. Unauthorized contact regarding this Call for Ongoing Applications with others outside of the Alliance may result in inaccurate information and may impact the review and determination decision of your application.

• An applicant may appeal the decision resulting from the recipient selection process, within 10 business days of the date of the decision notification to the applicant. Appeals received after 10 business days of the decision notification being rendered to the applicant will not be considered.

• The Alliance will provide an appeal decision within 15 business days of the receipt of the appeal. All decisions on submitted appeals are considered final.

All accounts and applications created and/or submitted within the Alliance grant portal, Good Grants, are considered confidential and will not be shared beyond the Alliance, DCY, and applicant identified foster care agencies, kinship workers, and Public Children Service Agencies (PCSA).

The applicant accepts full responsibility for all costs incurred in the preparation, submission, and other activities undertaken by the applicant associated with the application(s).
