Deadline: 29-Oct-21
The Vitalyst Health Foundation is seeking applications for Systems Change Grants Program to improve health and well-being for a vulnerable population.
This change is one that is fully sustainable and not connected to grant funds or external expectations, but rather an organizational or cross-system priority to new policies, culture, communication or practices.
Purpose
Systems Change Grants are designed to address the following:
- Increase community capacity to identify and address issues affecting community health and well-being.
- Strategically leverage infrastructure, systems design and policies to improve health where we live, learn, work, pray and play.
- Improve the environmental, social, behavioral and health infrastructure conditions that impact determinants of health and enable Arizonans to be healthy and resilient.
- Create a sustainable solution to the problem being addressed that endures after the term of the grant funding.
Outcomes
Health is at the root of what they do. These grants must clearly identify which health outcome(s) will be improved, including the population driving and benefiting from the change and the mechanism(s) for how the policy/practice change is improving the health outcome.
Eligibility Criteria
Qualifications:
- Arizona based non-profit serving Arizonans
- Two or more organizations/groups working as partners
- Not a continuation of an existing program
