The SSGT Family Matters grant programme is open again for applications from groups working across the island. We believe that putting families at the heart of the criminal justice system is the ‘golden thread’ which can reduce the harm of imprisonment and contribute to rehabilitation.

The grant programme has two strands: one for smaller grants to test new approaches or add value to current work (up to €7,000/£6,000) and the second for longer-term more strategic work (up to €25,000/£21,500).

Details of the scheme including criteria and a link to the relevant online application forms can be found here.
