Hayden Announces 2023 Community Reinvestment Grant Program Application Dates

District Attorney Kevin Hayden announced that community non-profit organizations in Suffolk County can apply for grants of up to $10,000 through his office’s Community Reinvestment Grant (CRG) program.

“It’s more important than ever for our neighborhood-focused service organizations to engage with residents of all ages throughout the county, and I’m looking forward to presenting the next round of funding to help them do that,” Hayden said. 

The CRG program will provide funding of up to $10,000 to 501(c)3 nonprofits that provide programming designed to prevent youth violence, substance use disorder, or substance use treatment in Boston, Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop.  State law allows prosecutors to distribute up to 10 percent of assets seized in narcotics prosecutions to community-based organizations for crime prevention and substance use treatment.

The deadline for submissions is May 19, and Hayden expects to announce grant recipients on June 1. 

More information on the CRG program can be found at Community Reinvestment Grant — Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office (suffolkdistrictattorney.com) and the submission forms are available at SCDAO_CRG_RFP_FY23.pdf (squarespace.com).
