NGO service development grants

Applications are now closed

The Network of Alcohol and Other Drugs Agencies (NADA) invites non government alcohol and other drug (AOD) organisations, who are funded by NSW Health to provide AOD treatment services in NSW, to apply for funding under the NGO Service Development Grant (NGO SDG) Program to undertake short term projects that will support the implementation of safety and quality initiatives for improved AOD service delivery, client experience and client outcomes.

One-off grants of up to $60,000 ex GST for individual organisation projects and $90,000 ex GST for collaborative projects have been made available by the NSW Ministry of Health to align and improve practice with the core treatment processes for AOD (Stream 1) and improve client experience of orientation, navigation and/or access to AOD treatment services (Stream 2).

The total funding pool available is $475,000.

The NGO SDG Program is a collaborative project between NADA and the Ministry of Health. NADA will auspice the funds and administer the program, guided by a funding contract with the Ministry of Health.
