Key Takeaways
The need is urgent — and funding is possible. Here’s what higher ed leaders should know:
- Federal Outlook: Level funding continues through FY25, but FY26 could bring new opportunities. Stay nimble — agencies are shifting priorities fast.
- Grants to Watch:
- Title V (Dept. of Ed) – Mental health now supported.
- DOJ Campus Grant – Includes trauma-informed care.
- SAMHSA Suicide Prevention – Expected Spring 2026.
- Congressional Earmarks – Flexible and underused.
- Make Mental Health Visible: Embed it in broader proposals — student success, violence prevention, workforce pathways.
- No Big Grants Office? No Problem: Start early, align departments, and use your data to prove impact.
