Nationals Member for Mildura, Jade Benham is encouraging local organisations to apply for the current round of road safety grants to improve road safety in our local communities.
The Transport Accident Commission’s 2024 TAC Road Safety Grant Program is open for applications.
“The grants program supports community groups and organisations to develop and implement effective community-based road safety projects,” said Ms Benham.
The program has two funding categories: Road Safety Support Grants of up to $50,000, and Road Safety Collaboration Grants of up to $150,000.
“The Clontarf Foundation recently received a Road Safety Collaboration Grant for a project that aims to improve safety outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth by increasing access to the Graduated Licensing System through professional driving lessons and road safety education.”
Ms Benham said she would be happy to provide letters of support for eligible applications.
The TAC Road Safety Grant Program will close on April 3, more information about the program can be found at www.tac.vic.gov.au/about-the-tac/community/grants/road-safety-grant-program
