Details:

Many factors contribute to a person’s health and wellness: genetics, education, individual behavior, environment and access to quality health care. For under-resourced populations access to affordable, quality health care (primary, oral or behavioral) can be challenging. Unhealthy behaviors can lead to chronic diseases. Becoming more informed about the causes of chronic disease can lead to behavioral changes that prevent or decrease these disease.

Efforts supported include:

  • Programs that support participant access to primary, dental, and/or mental/behavioral health. Behavioral health includes substance/drug abuse treatment.
  • Sustained programs that encourage healthy behaviors that are known to reduce chronic diseases (e.g. Type II diabetes, heart disease, and lung disease) in populations that typically have a high rate of health disparity. Preference will be given to programs that place an emphasis on improving participants’ health literacy.

Grant proposals should address one or more of the following outcomes:

  • Individuals with health disparities connect with a medical home and receive care/treatment that leads to an improved health status.
  • Individuals who access oral care programs complete a dental treatment plan.
  • Behavioral health needs or conditions of clients are improved.
  • Participants increase their knowledge of chronic disease conditions and exhibit healthy behaviors that lead to improved health.
