Summary of Grant Awards

Importance of Obtaining Grant Dollars to Support Your Mission

Grant funding is a critical revenue stream for starting up and sustaining health care services for under-served populations. Agencies caring for large uninsured populations struggle to maintain the services and staffing levels needed to have significant community impact. If grant applications are successful, community health centers can obtain a high percentage of their revenues from grant-related sources.
