Attorney General Peter Neronha and the Rhode Island Foundation are now accepting proposals for future grants to address dental care for Providence children.
The ten million dollars in funding is part of the state's civil settlement with Barletta Heavy Division to resolve environmental violations at the Route 6/10 construction site.
Nonprofit, 501(c)3 organizations are eligible to apply for the grants which are expected to range from 250 thousand to three million dollars.
The grant proposals may be for projects that are up to three years in duration.
