- Eligibility
- 501(c)(3) organizations with annual budgets under $600,000 that have operated harm reduction or syringe services for at least one year; tribal governments and fiscally sponsored projects welcome. The budget ceiling effectively excludes universities and large nonprofits, so an academic partner works through a small grantee.
