Tompkins County has announced that applications are open through May 15 for the 2025 City/County Community Agencies funding request process. Not-for-profit agencies serving the health and human services needs of the community are eligible to apply. The Human Services Coalition reviews applications and makes funding recommendations to the Tompkins County Legislature as part of an annual budget process.

Applicants must demonstrate an alignment with County goals in their application, such as by identifying relevant County plans, stated interests or stated focus areas.
