Pursue
- A Network for Connection, Healing, and Ongoing Resources (ACF/CB) — Possible 53. Award size unstated but ACF typically funds $100K–$500K range. Mission alignment on mental/behavioral health and community wellness is direct. ACF funds nonprofits serving vulnerable populations. South Bay geography fits. Verify: Does "ongoing resources" language indicate sustainable programming match? Confirm award ceiling before full application.

Bottom line
One realistic federal option. The ACF opportunity matches mission tightly (mental health + underserved populations + community-based delivery). Critical next step: Obtain full NOFO and confirm award amounts and any geographic/population restrictions. If award is ≥$150K and allows mobile/arts integration, prioritize. If capped below $100K or excludes your service counties, deprioritize for next cycle.
