Working Texans Economic Opportunity Grant

Reducing barriers that limit economic opportunity for working Texans

Texas Mutual seeks to invest in initiatives that stabilize working households so Texans can obtain and sustain employment and participate in economic opportunities. We’re looking for organizations aligned with one of the following focus areas:

• Championing working parents by expanding access to quality early childhood education (ages 0-5) or out-of-school time care for children so that parents can obtain and retain stable employment
• Prioritizing workforce wellness by ensuring working Texans are physically healthy through increased access to primary care
• Enabling workforce advancement by facilitating access to essential basic needs so that working Texans can obtain or retain stable employment, building a foundation for long-term economic mobility

Applications will be accepted between 8 a.m. CT on Monday, April 13 and 11:59 p.m. CT on Friday, May 15.
