Transit-Oriented Communities Grant Pre-Application Workshop

Learn how to get funding for your community projects at VTA's Transit-Oriented Communities Grant Pre-Application Workshop

The Santa Clara County Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) is releasing the Transit-Oriented Communities Grant to seek proposals from Santa Clara public public agencies, public charities, universities, cultural institutions, neighborhood associations, environmental organizations, and other nonprofit organizations.

The purpose of this grant is to support VTA’s vision of creating equitable Transit-Oriented Communities around transit stations and transit hubs.

At each workshop, staff will review the guidelines, timing, application process, and provide clarification of grant expectations. The workshops will include a question and answer session.

Grant Program Areas:

• Planning and Policy Implementation
• Community Resilience
• Education and Engagement
• Placekeeping, Arts, and Activation

Applicants are required to attend a pre-application workshop or review a recorded workshop before applying.
