Additional Details
Eligible Activities
Organizational Capacity requests should focus on internal organizational capacity rather than coalition, community, or program development. Applicants should consider what internal work would be most essential to ensuring the organization’s consistent, effective, and sustainable function within the community it serves. Some examples include: organizational infrastructure, evaluation and learning, organizational developments, technology enhancements. Collaborative capacity building grants will support community-based and community-led work that creates a sustainable foundation for cross-sectoral collaboration and coordination designed to spur progress on a key health issue(s). Projects should target a specific place such as a neighborhood, school(s), city, county, or region and/or a specific group within a defined geography. These grants are intended to assist with startup costs for new cross-sector, collaborative efforts or to expand the scope and health impact of an existing collaborative.
