Tide Setúbal Foundation launches mental health funding in São Paulo

The Tide Setúbal Foundation has launched the third edition of its ‘Territórios Clínicos’ call for proposals, aimed at strengthening mental health care access in the peripheries of São Paulo state. The initiative will select ten organizations, groups, or collectives to receive financial support and technical assistance over a three-year period.

A total of R$ 2 million will be invested, providing R$ 200,000 to each selected organization. Eligible applicants include civil society organizations and collectives, with or without legal entity status (CNPJ), that operate in São Paulo and focus on psychological or psychoanalytic care, professional training, or mental health knowledge production.

The selection process involves three stages: application and action plan analysis, interviews with pre-selected initiatives, and a final evaluation by a committee of specialists. Selected organizations will be announced in December 2026, with activities scheduled to begin in 2027. Applications are open until August 31, 2026.
