FY27 YSB GRANT APPLICATION INFORMATION – DUE 9/15/2026

The application and projected grant budget must be completed by 9/15/26 to ensure continued DCF funding throughout the year. All questions in the Application are mandatory and must be completed in order to advance through. However, the link that you have been sent to complete the Application is a unique link for your organization, as a result you can begin the Application and then leave and return at a later time if needed. Your organization’s Application link can also be used by multiple staff members to allow a group effort at completing the Application. Many questions in the survey have follow-up questions depending on the answers chosen. Follow-up questions will appear as answers are selected. All follow-up questions are also mandatory. If you have any questions or issues while completing the survey please contact info@dillingerrad.org for assistance.
