Tackling Homelessness across the Generations

The application process

ACT does not have a formal application form. Neither is there a formal set of criteria for either of the programmes described on this website and detailed on “Current Status of Funding Programme” as follows:

a. Tackling Homelessness across the generations through family and parenting support; or b. Supporting new initiatives that are innovative, replicable and sustainable.

However, f you feel that your work falls into either of these categories, then we might be interested to hear from you.

Please read the information on this site carefully before you apply and we suggest that it is preferable to make initial contact with the Director, through email or by phone, before you embark on writing a proposal for us.

On average, it takes about 8-12 months to assess, work with and make a final funding decision. We recognise that this is not a quick process, but it does afford us and you the opportunity to create a working relationship which, if we fund your organisation, will last anything from 1 to 7 years.

The information on the next page “Thinking of Applying” provides details of what we DO and DON’T fund. It also suggests the information that you should include in a written application.
