Summary
This grant opportunity offers funding support for organizations working to improve community health and strengthen access to essential services across Wisconsin. The funding is designed to assist initiatives that reduce barriers to care, expand education, and promote healthier outcomes for individuals and families throughout the state. The opportunity is available only within Wisconsin and focuses on projects that can demonstrate a broad public benefit.
One portion of the funding provides a larger award of up to approximately $200,000 per year to support a statewide initiative focused on distributing critical health-related supplies and educational materials directly to residents. The intent of this funding is to ensure individuals can access these resources in a confidential, low-barrier manner, particularly in underserved or rural communities. Funds may be used for program operations, outreach, distribution systems, and educational support that align with the overall goal of improving health and safety.
Additional grant funds are offered at smaller award levels, generally ranging from $2,000 to $5,000, to support learning opportunities, workshops, or community-based events that strengthen the health workforce. These funds are intended to help cover event-related expenses and encourage knowledge sharing, professional growth, and collaboration among health professionals, students, and community leaders.
Eligibility for these grants typically includes nonprofit organizations, community-based groups, public entities, tribal organizations, and certain educational or professional organizations operating within Wisconsin. Individuals and for-profit businesses are generally not the primary focus, though small organizations with a clear community benefit may be considered depending on the project type.
Overall, the grants are intended to promote equitable access to resources, build capacity within the health sector, and support programs that contribute to healthier, more resilient communities across the state.
