FRETAC Mini Grants
Description and Purpose:
Seven years ago, the FRETAC Council started putting money "away" to start a grant
process within our five county region. The FRETAC grant process is divided into two
divisions. These are the "County Mini-Grants" and the "Agency Mini-Grants."
FRETAC County Mini-Grants:
Each year a letter is sent to each set of our county commissioners. The letter states
that $5,000 is available to them for "Basic EMS Needs". After they send back the
attestation form included in the letter, a check is sent to the county. It is up to each
set of commissioners as to how the funds are spent and who will decide where the
funds go. The RETAC retains copies of all County Expenditures.
FRETAC Competitive Mini-Grants:
Mini-Grants for FY-12 are now complete. Next year's process will begin again in
October 2012
The grants focus on the RETAC's current Goals and Objectives. These goals can be
found in our Biennial Plan. Our current plan has 5 goals for the next two years. Two of
the five goals are related to MCI. If interested, follow the links below for specific info.
