Anchored by our commitment to improving the health of the socially vulnerable, we are prioritizing partnerships and programs that address the physical, behavioral, and social needs of under-resourced communities. Our grant ranges are open; we determine funding levels based on several factors, including the need and the plan presented to address it. Generally, our grants last from one to three years.
