A portion of the new grants were awarded to Cambridge-based Eastern Shore Wellness Solutions whose mission is to provide self-management training for individuals living with chronic disease. The organization is also a resource for the social determinants of health, including housing, food and transportation.

Eastern Shore Wellness Solutions will use the funds to provide continued education training for their Community Health Workers and Peer Support Specialists. The Community Ministries of Rockville will receive additional funding for its Mansfield Health Clinic.

The Clinic offers comprehensive primary care, laboratory and pharmacy services, and in-house specialty care including endocrinology, podiatry, behavioral health, internal medicine, and gastroenterology. The grant will support a reserve fund for the clinic to be used in case of emergencies.

The University of Maryland Medical System Foundation’s Breathmobile will also receive grant funding in order to purchase long-needed medical equipment.
