Grants

Each year, ATSPA awards grant funding to select its EMS and Institutional Members for new projects in trauma prevention education. Examples of applications received previously include establishing a safe micromobility outreach program, setting up mobile resource carts, a water safety outreach day, and more. ATSPA recommends that hospitals utilize their injury data and community needs to help determine what they should apply for.

Grant opportunities are determined by the type of membership. Hospital members should apply for mini grants, while EMS Members should apply for micro grants. Applications for the wrong type of grant will not be considered. Only one application per membership will be accepted. Members interested in applying for a grant should follow the instructions below.

Any questions regarding the application process can be sent to Kim Nunemaker at knunemaker@atspa.org or by calling the office at 717-766-1616 ext.109.
