ABOUT US

The Wellbeing Microgrant Program is part of the Santa Monica Bay Area Human Relations Council (HRC).

The HRC is a nonprofit organization that promotes a culture of fair treatment, inclusion and equal access to opportunities.

Civic Wellbeing Partners is a startup project whose mission is to develop and promote civic innovation through engagement and partnerships. We harness data and create equity-focused solutions to improve the quality of daily life in Santa Monica and beyond. 

 

The Wellbeing Microgrant Program began within the City of Santa Monica's pioneering Office of Civic Wellbeing and transitioned out of city hall in June 2020.
