Description  [hide this]

This competitive funding round is for capital projects that establish or expand capacity for behavioral health services.

For further guidance regarding this application, please see our Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and Program Guidelines found on the Community Capital Facilities - Behavioral Health Facilities webpage.

Live technical assistance for application completion is available from BHF program staff until November 22, 2022. See the NOFO for instructions on when and how to contact BHF staff.  After November 22nd, applicants will need to refer to materials posted to our webpage for technical assistance.  

Pre-application responses must be received by Midnight (PST) on November 14, 2022.  If BHF program staff contact you regarding your responses to the pre-application questions and you do not respond back to the outreach, by either the November 14th deadline or a deadline given by BHF staff, you will not be eligible to complete an application.

A complete application must be received by Midnight (PST) on December 5, 2022.  The ZoomGrants system has an electronic clock and we work off of the systems clock for submission entry time.  If you have not submitted a complete application by Midnight, according to the ZoomGrant system clock, your application will not be accepted.

If an application is eligible to be submitted and the user logged into the system is qualified to submit it, the gray Submit Now button will be near the top of the application, just above the application content tabs, on the righthand side. If there is no visible Submit Now button in the application, see the ZoomGrants University instructions titled "I can't find a Submit button. How do I submit an application?".  We strongly recommend not waiting to the very last minutes of the deadlines to submit an application.  Because the deadline is midnight, there will be no BHF staff or ZoomGrants staff available to provide technical support if you are having issues after hours.
