Funding Opportunity: Wake Partners Reentry Community Grants

Capital Area Workforce Development (CAWD), in collaboration with Wake County Government, is pleased to announce a new round of grant funding designed to strengthen reentry services throughout Wake County. This opportunity is intended for organizations that are already making a measurable difference in the lives of justice‑involved residents by delivering innovative support, skill‑building opportunities, and clear pathways to employment.

Selected organizations may receive up to $25,000 in funding for a 12‑month project period, with awards anticipated to begin July 1, 2026. Together, we will expand opportunity, eliminate barriers, and help more residents move forward with confidence.

Interested applicants must attend a live information session. These sessions will provide details on eligibility, application requirements, and funding priorities. Please note: sessions will not be recorded.
