Funding Opportunity: Target Zero Grants

Submitted by RayH on Mon, 01/09/2017 - 06:23

The Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) recently published their Announcement of Available Grant Funds for Federal Fiscal Year 2018!  The WTSC hopes to see many innovative ideas from around the state to help achieve the Target Zero Vision. 

In the past, the funds have been allocated to support environmental prevention strategies like Parent Party Patrols in both Pierce and Thurston Counties and an array of local strategies directed at reducing youth impaired driving.
