The Montana Healthcare Foundation has issued its 2021 Request for Proposals for innovative ideas for improving health and well-being in Montana.
The foundation's focus areas include the following three categories: Partnerships for Better Health — Innovative new community partnerships aimed at addressing the root causes of illness and using existing resources more effectively to improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
American Indian Health — American Indian-led projects that address critical health and healthcare challenges and address/mitigate the social, economic, and educational factors that drive health disparities.
Behavioral Health — Collaborative systems-based solutions to behavioral health challenges. Through this RFP, the foundation will award grants ranging between $10,000 and $100,000 over a one- to two-year period.
To be eligible, applicants must be a Montana-based organization that is tax-exempt under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code, a tax-exempt educational institution, or a state, tribal, or local government agency.
