Apply for the 2026 Community Change Grant Program America Walks and generous partners from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity are excited to announce another round of our popular Community Change Grant Program . This program will award 6 grantees $2,000 for projects related to creating healthy, active, and engaged places to live, work, and play.
This program supports the CDC’s Active People, Healthy Nation℠ initiative which aims to help 27 million people become more physically active by 2027.
America Walks has seen firsthand that the passion, innovation, and hard work of local organizations to advance safe and enjoyable places to walk and move are what create the foundation for walkable communities across the U.S. This grant program will work to provide support to the growing network of champions, organizations, and agencies using innovative and engaging programs and projects to create change at the community level.
We look forward to funding projects that demonstrate increased physical activity and active transportation in a specific community, work to engage people and organizations new to the efforts of walking and walkability, and demonstrate a culture of health and design. Projects will create healthy, active, and engaged communities that support walking as transportation, health, and recreation.
Projects must show a strong and intentional foundation of engagement of the whole community. We are particularly interested in projects that center the concerns of the most underfunded communities, reach across the demographics of communities to build coalitions, and/or create unique civic partnerships with new perspectives.
Our desire is for proposed projects to have a particular focus on engaging in key issues of the day with new perspectives and various partners/audiences, while highlighting the vital role that walking and transportation partners can play in a new era.
