Applications are now being accepted for the second round of Complete Streets Activation Mini Grants! If you are affiliated with a local organization interested in improving your community, consider applying today.

** Updated** Applications will now be accepted through February 26th, 2021. Apply online here.

The Complete Streets Activation Mini Grant funds civic groups, community leaders, and individuals to develop an event or project that builds grassroots support for safe and accessible streets and highlights the benefits of the City’s expanded low-stress bikeway network. Our hope is to empower residents to engage their peers and celebrate the complete streets improvements currently under construction as part of Mayor Cantrell’s ‘Moving New Orleans Bikes’ initiative.

As members of the New Orleans Complete Streets Coalition, we’re proud to support this effort to activate our streets. In the last round of mini grants, community members organized family bike rides, bike light giveaways, and plenty of other great biking events. Apply today to bring even more great biking events to New Orleans this Spring!

The New Orleans Complete Streets Coalition will be offering a total of $15,000 through our mini grants. In their first round, they granted 10 organizations an average of $750 for their events and projects, and are currently supporting their implementation. You can find more information about the first round recipients here.
