The Social Innovation Fund represents a strategic partnership with the Province of New Brunswick to
experiment, innovate and test new initiatives based on sound evidence to help end a lifetime of
poverty for our children.

Living SJ is New Brunswick’s living lab to end generational poverty that builds the essential social
foundations – education, health, employment, and citizen engagement – for economic growth.
Collective impact is the framework to achieve Living SJ’s vision.

Purpose of the Social Innovation Fund:

  1. Nurture new ideas that support Living SJ’s targets;
  2. Scale programs that are already working in our community; and
  3. Co-create new policies, services and programs with government based on those results that
    achieve greater impact and a significant return on investment.

The Social Innovation Fund has a continuous intake process. There is no application deadline.
