Aboriginal Community Planning Grants
The goal of this grant program is to improve health and well-being in aboriginal communities by supporting community planning for activities that will increase active transportation through improvements in the built environment. This includes activities such as: conducting community surveys to understand what members need to walk or bike, or planning improvements of community amenities (i.e. sidewalks, trails, public transit connections, etc.).
The deadline for applications is Friday May 29, 2009.
