| Title of grant: |
Special Projects Fund |
| Organization offering the grant: |
New York State Health Foundation |
| Abstract: |
The New York State Health Foundation (NYSHealth) has a broad mission to improve the health of New York State residents. In order to have a tangible impact, most of the Foundation’s grantmaking is focused on three priority areas: expanding health insurance coverage, improving the management and prevention of diabetes, and encouraging the integration of substance use and mental health services. NYSHealth also recognizes that it can be an important resource if it is responsive to opportunities that fit our mission, but are outside our three priority areas. For this purpose, NYSHealth expects to award grants as part of the 2013 Special Projects Fund. Special Projects Fund awards should be considered one-time, non-renewable funding opportunities. Only in exceptional circumstances would NYSHealth consider making an additional grant for a project that has been previously funded. Projects are coordinated interventions over a specified period of time to achieve measurable results. While projects that have impact within one organization or community are eligible, this RFP places emphasis on initiatives that have a large-scale statewide or region-wide impact on New York State’s health care system. |
