Community Action Initiative
The Community Action Initiative (CAI) supports communities that identify and seek to address mental health and substance use concerns. Our organization was launched with a $10 million allocation from the Province of BC. We provide convening grants to help community partners connect with each other, and develop potential action plans, encouraging both collaboration and participation by members of the target population.http://www.communityactioninitiative.ca/?utm_source=Community+Action+Initiative+Mailing+List&utm_campaign=bb96205e1c-Cycle_3_Training_Innovation_Call_for_LOI_3_15_2012&utm_medium=email
