Raleigh's Human Relations Commission has made grant funding recommendations to the City Council. These grants are awarded annually to nonprofits providing direct services to low-income residents who identify with targeted groups, including older adults, youth, individuals facing housing insecurity, persons with disabilities, and those with substance use disorders.

The grants underscore the City’s commitment to supporting vulnerable populations and ensuring access to essential resources and services.

### FY24 Grantees Impact

This past year, the FY24 Human Services Grant has led to notable accomplishments in Raleigh. Key highlights include:

- **Equity and Inclusion:** Initiatives were implemented to address disparities and ensure accessibility for all, including individuals with disabilities.

- **Innovation and Resilience:** Grantees adapted to evolving community needs with innovative approaches.

These contributions have significantly impacted Raleigh, bringing positive changes and enhancing the quality of life for residents.
