Applications are now open for youth organizations hoping to avail of provincial government grants.

The program provides funding to not-for-profits which benefit young people between the ages of 12 and 29, and which support opportunities for skills development.

Priority may be given to projects that support marginalized youth, mental health and education related to sexual exploitation and gender-based violence.

About $275,000 is available through the program with a maximum amount of $30,000 available per organization.

Applications are open until July 10.
