Smithers Healthy Communities

GRANT APPLICATION

The Healthy Community Seed Grants are made possible with Northern Health funding through your local Partnering for Healthier Communities committee in Smithers/Bulkley Valley. Northern Health has a variety of granting opportunities available to community groups, however these seed grants are distributed by the Bulkley Valley Social Planning Socitety (BVSPS) on behalf of the partnership between the BVSPS, Northern Health and the Town of Smithers.

$7500 is available in seed grants of up to $2500 to local initiatives that contribute to a healthier community in the Smithers Area. Preference will be given to those applicants that can create a link between current Smithers work on Community Vitality. A history and copy of the recently released Community Vitality Report Card can be found on the Town of Smithers website at:

Applicants may also wish to consider addressing Northern Health’s risk factors affecting health while thinking about ways to measure change. These include: preventing injuries; healthy eating; healthy weight and obesity; tobacco reduction; and sedentary behavior and physical activity. For more information:
