Awareness in Action: Bright Sky on Campus
Request for Proposals – Grants Available for Campuses
Proposal Deadline: August 29, 2025
The Western Region Continuums of Service Consortium (WRCOS) is pleased to offer the Awareness in Action: Bright Sky on Campus grant opportunity to its campus members. LEAD California is the lead agency on behalf of WRCOS on this $150,000 grant with the purpose of highlighting Bright Sky, a unique, community-based tool that gives friends, peers, educators, and students resources to recognize domestic violence and respond safely. By sharing this app across campuses within the Western Region, we can take meaningful, practical steps to address the urgent public health crisis of domestic violence.
WRCOS has received this funding through Vodafone Americas Foundation. The funded program proposes to engage over 20,000 students across 4 states on or around Domestic Violence Awareness Month, October 2025.
