Minnesota Community-Based Suicide Prevention Coalition Grant RFP Q&A

Questions and answers regarding the Minnesota Community-Based Suicide Prevention Coalition Grant Request for Proposals will be posted below within two business days of submission.

Q: Am I eligible as a current grantee?

A: Current MDH grantees are eligible to apply. Applicants awarded funding under multiple MDH grant programs will be responsible for maintaining compliance with and completing all required activities, deliverables, and reporting obligations for each grant.

Q: Is this grant seen as a continuation of the current Community-Based Suicide Prevention grants?

A: No, this funding opportunity is not a continuation of the previous grant. This is a new opportunity for communities to initiate a planning process from the ground up, including assessing local needs, identifying partnerships, and developing localized suicide prevention strategies. Applicants should approach this opportunity as a new planning process rather than an extension of activities funded under the previous grant. 

Q: Are organizations eligible to submit applications for multiple open funding opportunities through the Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Unit?

A: Yes, organizations may apply for multiple open grant opportunities.
