Grant Description
Grants and in-kind support to USA nonprofit organizations for projects to address the mental health needs of children and young adults. The purpose of this program is to increase access to care, promote mental health equity, reduce stigma, enable early identification and prevention, and enhance intervention, especially among disadvantaged and vulnerable populations.

The Morgan Stanley Alliance for Children's Mental Health Innovation Awards initiative specifically addresses the lack of both private and public investment in children’s mental health and offers effective ways to connect innovative ideas with capital through seed funding, networking, and capacity-building opportunities. 

The Alliance is looking for new or piloted projects from direct-service organizations that will help address the far-reaching challenges of stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues in children and young adults on a national or local level in the U.S. 

Through a capacity-building platform, select applicants will be invited to join expert-led and peer learning sessions, as well as networking opportunities aimed to benefit small to mid-sized organizations.
