NORTH SUBURBAN YOUTH ASSOCIATION GRANT APPLICATION INFORMATION The policy of the NSYA is to accept grant application requests, for consideration, from organizations and /or individuals within NSYA boundary areas. Grants are approved specifically for the purpose of capitol improvements, hardships, and special projects for youth related activities. The goal of NSYA, when providing funding, is to increase and maximize the number of youth served, in a safe healthy environment, in our community. NSYA accepts fund request grant applications from youth organizations and individuals that meet youth requirements. When individuals are requesting funds to participate in an organized program, a representative of that organization must accompany the individual to the interview. Preference in approving grants will be given to individuals participating in local programs NSYA suggests that, in addition to the NSYA, organizations and /or individuals making application, submit the request to several other service organizations in an effort to lessen the commitment of NSYA.
