- Applicants for Mini grants must be out of school Adults (over the age of 18 and out of school) who are Members of the DAC.
- Applicants can apply as many times as needed but can only receive funding once every three years. This limit is per client and not per family so multiple family members can receive funding in different years.

- The applicants must agree to follow-up, providing receipts, and documentation of appropriate use of funds.

The grant committee will review completed grant submissions and may award up to three grants for this grant period.
