They recognize that residents experience varying degrees of health based on the structures, cultures, and geographies in which they are situated. For example, some problems are experienced more intensely by different racial or ethnic populations; rural or urban communities; women; LGBTQIA+ persons; or people with disabilities. Therefore, the varying size and scope of grants will reflect the different depths and complexities of these barriers to ensure all residents can equitably achieve and maintain health and well-being.
The Western Reserve Health Foundation considers how an organization works and who leads the work. Strong proposals will incorporate the following:
- Individuals with personal knowledge or direct experience have key roles in planning & implementation.
- Success is clearly defined as are plans to achieve it and evaluate results toward it.
- Qualitative and quantitative data is used to inform approach and measure impact.
- Underlying social and economic challenges contributing to poor health are addressed, such as racial inequity, poverty, as well as barriers to healthy food, quality housing and safe parks/recreational spaces.
- Projected outcomes include change in policies, systems and environments to help make healthy options practical and readily available in an equitable manner to all residents.
- Requested funds will leverage other public and private funding sources.
- Partners from different sectors, including public health, government, education, healthcare, etc., have been engaged to develop shared priorities and strategies.
