Introduction

In collaboration with the Huron County Accessibility Advisory Committee (HCAAC), the County of Huron is launching a NEW AccessSLED Program. This initiative offers funding grants of up to $1,000 to support projects that enhance accessibility and inclusivity throughout Huron County.

Funding is available to a wide range of organizations in Huron County, including:

• Private local businesses, retail, and services
• Municipal buildings,
• Non-profit organizations, community centers, and recreational facilities,
• Local hospitality, tourism, restaurants, and other food establishments (excluding franchises),
• Arts and cultural venues, and
• E-commerce platforms catering to Huron County residents.

Eligible projects must demonstrate a clear, measurable impact on improving accessibility. The deadline to submit an application for the 2025 AccessSLED program is April 17, 2025, 4:30 p.m. Successful applicants will receive 50% of the grant upfront, with the remaining 50% upon project completion.
