Community Grant Program | Mayors Office of Community Affairs The Executive Office of the Mayor (EOM)’s mission is to improve the quality of life of District residents through advocacy, community outreach, education, and inter-agency coordination. The Mayor's Office of Community Affairs (MOCA) serves as a liaison to the city's diverse communities, ensuring residents' voices are heard and represented.
Through MOCA, EOM serves as the liaison between the District Government and various District communities, including, but not limited to the returning citizens community, the Asian and Pacific Islander community, the Latino community, the African community, the African American community, the LGBTQ+ community, the Veterans community, the women’s community, the Caribbean community, and the faith community.
1 EOM invites all CBOs that serve these communities and more within the District to apply for this grant to advance the below funding priorities. Through educational programming and workforce training opportunities for residents of all ages, we can give more DC residents a fair shot.
This includes everything from early childhood education and youth enrichment programs to trade programs and adult training so that all learners have the opportunity to succeed. Programs can include but are not limited to Limited English Proficient and Non-English Proficient (LEP/NEP) learning programs, recreation, sports, arts, and civic engagement.
Clean and Safe Communities: Community-based programs and initiatives that keep our neighborhoods safe, clean, and healthy are critical for complementing and expanding the work of District government. This programming includes but is not limited to supporting the mental and physical well-being of DC residents, addressing chronic health disparities, improving resources for crime prevention, and empowering youth through mentorship.
As the District’s economy shifts, we must shift with it. The Growth Agenda leans in on sports, live entertainment, and tech; continues support for Downtown DC; and makes it easier to do business in DC. A successful growth agenda will generate new economic activity by creating new jobs for DC residents and new revenues to support city services.
