This funding opportunity supports efforts that improve the health and well-being of communities through initiatives that address root causes and increase access to essential services. The grants are designed to foster positive outcomes for populations facing health disparities, economic hardship, and social inequities. Funding is available to nonprofit organizations and public institutions working across a defined regional area, with an emphasis on collaboration and measurable impact.
The intent of the funds is to strengthen programs that offer direct services or systemic solutions in areas such as food security, physical activity, housing stability, behavioral health, addiction recovery, early childhood wellness, and other related fields. Eligible applicants may use the funding for a variety of purposes, including new project implementation, capacity-building efforts, equipment or technology improvements, or operational support that directly benefits program delivery.
Grant opportunities are available through two primary pathways—one for immediate needs and another for longer-term initiatives. Applicants are encouraged to align their proposals with core priority areas that support thriving neighborhoods, healthy lifestyles, and access to mental and behavioral health care. Depending on the type of application, awards may range from modest one-time assistance to more substantial grants for comprehensive programs.
Organizations must be located in or provide services to designated counties. Entities are typically required to be tax-exempt or affiliated with public-serving agencies. Applicants are advised to review the funding priorities and timelines, as grant cycles may occur twice annually with a multi-step application process.
This opportunity is well-suited for community-based organizations seeking to advance equity and long-term change in underserved populations through targeted and sustainable health interventions.
