NOTICE: Change in CHPD Fund Cycle for Fall 2023

We would like to inform our valued community that the Chris Herron Program Development (CHPD) fund cycle for Fall 2023 will not take place. This decision is a part of our commitment to continually enhance our programs and services.

At this time, we are in the midst of a strategic planning process aimed at ensuring that all our initiatives and outputs are thoughtfully aligned with our mission and vision. We believe that this step is crucial in delivering the best possible support to our community.

We understand the importance of the CHPD fund cycle, and we anticipate launching the new cycle in the spring. Stay tuned for updates on our website and other communication channels as we work to make our programs even more valuable for the community.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

We appreciate your patience as we embark on this exciting journey to better serve our community!
