Balance of State ESG Information

The ESG application cycle occurs on an annual basis. The application is administered by the State and is overseen by Kim Crawford in the DHHS Division of Aging and Adult Services.

The ESG application includes two parts: a community application completed by the Regional Committee and a project application completed by each agency that is seeking funding.

This page is for Balance of State-specific information. General information about the ESG application can be found here.

Designing a Local Funding Process

In order to assist Regional Committees as they design and implement a local funding process, BoS staff have assembled some general resources about designing effective competitions. While these resources are written for foundations to use, many of the same strategies may be employed by communities to help create a local ESG funding competition.
