Continuation funding is an extension or renewal of existing project funding for one or more additional budget periods that would otherwise expire. Organizations awarded TCDD funding must apply for continuation funding each year. Continuation proposals are generally due about three months before the end of the grant year. Grantees use project-specific access codes to complete their continuation applications through our Qualtrics platform. Your TCDD grant coordinator can provide additional guidance.
The Grant Continuation Application Preview document (.docx file, 30 KB, 9 pages) allows you to preview the questions in the continuation application.
The Leadership and Advocacy Survey and and the Participant Satisfaction survey help us learn more about people with DD and families who participate in grant-related activities. They also help us track outcomes and learn more about how we can continue supporting Texans with DD and their families. Grantees use project-specific survey links to submit advocacy activity and satisfaction surveys through our Qualtrics platform. Your TCDD grant coordinator can provide additional information on how to access and share survey links.
You can preview the survey questions in English and Spanish by downloading the following templates:
Grantees should share a confidentiality statement with project participants before collecting participant information during project activities.
Sample Confidentiality Statement:
Thank you for taking this short, optional survey. Your responses will help us learn more about the people and communities we serve. Some questions in the survey ask about your personal information, but your responses are completely anonymous and cannot be used to identify you. You can still participate in our program even if you choose not to take the survey. We will only use your responses to report to the Texas Council for Developmental Disabilities (TCDD), and your information will be kept safe and secure.
