Helping Other Organizations

Indiana statutes guide our grant process. Our grants are funded through countermeasure fees and fines collected from alcohol and drug charges through the local court system. In September of each year, CASA sets its local budget based on these funds. Split into four equal parts, and our funds are distributed as grants to Prevention and Education programs, Law Enforcement programs, and Treatment programs. The last fourth of the funds goes towards CASA's operating costs.


October 3rd, 2022: CASA will begin accepting grant applications


Grant applications are due on November 23rd, 2022. Please follow all the directions carefully.   There is a total of $15,470 available in each category (#1 Prevention/Education, #2 Treatment/Intervention, #3 Criminal Justice.) LATE APPLICATIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Please plan accordingly.  2023 CYCLE CLOSED


December: CASA membership is presented with recommendations from the grant committee and voted on during the monthly meeting


Once the grants have been approved by our members, they are submitted to the County Commissioners and the State of Indiana for final approval.


Funds are distributed to the grantees by mid-February
