ACL Community Grants

The ACL offers community grants to people with Intellectual Developmental Disabilities (IDD) in Boulder and Broomfield Counties. Do you have a project, idea, goal, or aspiration you want to pursue but need funding? Tell us about your plan! The ACL Community Grant Committee will review your application and let you know if we can help. Grant requests can be as small as $25 or as large as $500, but we will consider larger grants. Multiple requests are welcome as ideas expand or emerge!
