Frequently Asked Questions

What people are asking.

We are still in our launch phase, so some program details will be finalized as funding and partnerships come together.

Are you accepting applications right now?

No. Stronger Roots Alliance is currently raising its initial $30,000 and preparing the program. Applications will open after launch readiness is established.

Who is the program intended to support?

The planned program is for families in San Diego County with a formerly incarcerated parent and a child under 18, subject to final eligibility policies and funding availability.

What activities can be supported?

The planned model includes youth sports, music, dance, theater, art, STEM programs, tutoring, martial arts, summer camps and other approved enrichment opportunities.

How much support can a child receive?

The current planned model is up to $400 per approved activity, with a maximum annual benefit of $800 per child for up to two approved activities.

Do families receive cash?

No. The planned model is to pay verified activity providers directly, helping ensure donor funds are used for the approved activity.

How can organizations partner with you before launch?

Community organizations, youth providers, schools, reentry organizations and other partners can contact us to explore referrals, provider relationships and launch support.
