This opportunity offers three tiers of funding to meet the differing needs of Oregon communities.

This model offers the opportunity for organizations to develop and sustain their projects by progressing from tier to tier over time.

- Tier 3 Evaluate and Sustain | Up to $60,000

Allowable Expenses
Funds may be used for the following types of expenses provided they are directly attributable to the proposed project:
- Personnel: Costs include both salary and fringe benefits
- Consultant fees.
- Equipment: Defined as any item that has a useful life of over one year.
- Materials and supplies.
- Travel costs (excluding travel for CPP required trainings, which will be provided).
- Clinical care costs.
- Indirect costs: Include facilities and administration and/or overhead. Not to exceed 10% of the total budget (without an approved justification).
Eligibility Criteria
- Individuals affiliated with community groups/organizations, schools, government bodies, health/ medical clinics, health systems or businesses may apply. OHSU employees, students, divisions or departments are not eligible to apply. While the Community Partnership Program encourages collaboration between community organizations and experts in the field, funds are not intended to solely support the work of an individual who is not affiliated with a community organization.
- Individuals affiliated with an academic institution or university are required to partner with a local community-based organization to ensure funds are invested into the target community. This partnership should include collaboration on proposal development and, if funded, the community partner should contribute to or lead project implementation.
- The Community Partnership Program may limit the number of grants made to an organization in a single cycle or cumulatively. In addition, our Steering Committee may prioritize applications that propose a unique or innovative project, thereby reserving the right to deny the funding of proposals that duplicate or are similar in scope to other previously funded and/or proposed CPP projects.
