An organization can apply for multiple sites but each site, must submit an application.

Data should only be provided for the site for which you are applying for the grant.

Yes, all clinics are required to submit an interest form per site to ZERO TO THREE and to submit a separate application per site to First 5 Orange County.

High 5 is a reporting system used by First 5 OC and the recipients of this grant funding will be asked to report into that system.

We have funding for three clinics.

7. Would it be possible to train more then one behavioral health specialist?

That is something that can be examined if your clinic is awarded funding.
