DuPage Community Transformation Partnership

The DuPage Community Transformation Partnership (DCTP), a collaborative partnership between DuPage County and DuPage Foundation, is a five-year grant program supporting social service not-for-profit organizations that are helping DuPage County residents most severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. DCTP funding specifically focuses on providing assistance in the areas of food insecurity, housing instability, mental health, and substance use disorder.

In February 2022, the DuPage County Board granted $10.6 million in federal American Rescue Plan Act funds to DuPage Foundation to manage the grant program. To date, $6.2 million has been awarded to support the immediate and long-term needs of the community in response to the COVID-19 health emergency.
