Summary
Offers a wide range of grant programs across many divisions to support health, wellness, and human services across North Carolina. These funding opportunities are designed to help strengthen community‑based organizations, health providers, and safety‑net systems that help vulnerable or underserved populations. The grants support areas such as behavioral health, public health, aging services, child development, disability services, social services, and rural health.
One major stream is for mental health and substance‑use initiatives, where the department is committing millions of dollars to bolster community‑based services. These funds are targeted to help expand culturally competent mental health care, build peer‑support models, and provide resources to families and caregivers. Many of these grants come in the form of block‑grant funding, allowing flexibility to reach historically marginalized groups, older adults, and people with developmental disabilities.
There is also a telehealth infrastructure grant geared toward rural healthcare providers. This program helps clinics and independent practices purchase or upgrade technology, pay for high‑speed internet, train staff, and support patients in getting devices necessary to use telehealth. The goal is to improve access to care in remote or underserved communities through sustainable telehealth systems.
Another important grant is the Community Health Grant, which supports safety‑net primary care providers. Eligible organizations can use funding to cover preventive and primary care, integrated services (such as behavioral health, dental, pharmacy), care coordination, and health‑worker initiatives. This helps clinics that serve uninsured or medically indigent patients to deliver comprehensive care.
Also supports early‑care systems through stabilization grants for childcare programs, helping maintain quality and workforce capacity. Across its grant portfolio, the department encourages collaboration, sustainability, and innovation.
Overall, these grants are available to nonprofit organizations, public clinics, local governments, and healthcare providers in North Carolina. The aim is to build resilient systems that improve access to care and support for communities, especially in underserved or rural areas.
