Social Connections Grants

What is a Social Inclusion Action Group (SIAG)?

SIAG is a community-led group making decisions and developing solutions at a local level to support social connection and inclusion. Each SIAG is facilitated by their local council with funding provided by the Victorian Government.

Social Connections Grants

SIAG awards Social Connection Grants through a tiered system up to a value of $5,000 that aim to support local community groups and other organisations to conduct projects that create opportunities for community connection and inclusion. Enhancing social connections can provide much-needed support and create positive experiences.

The funding of the SIAG program and initiatives has been made possible through funding provided by the Victorian Government Department of Health.

We encourage anyone considering applying for a Social Connection Grant to discuss their application with the Social Inclusion Action Group Coordinator on 0439 807 490 or socialinclusion@benalla.vic.gov.au
