Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Racial Justice and Health Equity in Oregon
The foundation's grant program aims to address the systemic factors contributing to health inequities in Oregon. To achieve this, the program focuses on several priority outcomes that are closely tied to the state's unique demographic and geographic features. One of the key outcomes is reducing the disparities in health outcomes experienced by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities in Oregon.
Addressing Historical Inequities in Oregon's Rural Communities
Oregon's rural communities, particularly in counties like Lake and Harney, face significant health disparities due to limited access to healthcare services and resources. The Oregon Office of Rural Health, a key state agency, has identified these areas as critical to addressing health inequities. The grant program prioritizes outcomes that address the historical and systemic factors contributing to these disparities, such as lack of access to healthcare providers and limited economic opportunities.
Improving Health Outcomes for Oregon's BIPOC Communities
Oregon is home to a diverse population, including a significant proportion of BIPOC communities. The grant program prioritizes outcomes that improve health outcomes for these communities, such as increasing access to culturally responsive healthcare services and addressing the social determinants of health. For example, the program may support initiatives that address the high rates of diabetes and obesity among Native American communities in Oregon.
Building Capacity for Health Equity in Oregon
To achieve the priority outcomes, the grant program will support initiatives that build capacity for health equity in Oregon. This includes supporting organizations that provide research and evaluation services, as well as those that provide direct services to BIPOC communities. The program may also support initiatives that enhance the capacity of state agencies, such as the Oregon Health Authority, to address health inequities.
The grant program is seeking applications that can demonstrate a clear understanding of the systemic factors contributing to health inequities in Oregon and propose effective strategies for addressing them. Applicants should be aware that the program is looking for initiatives that can achieve tangible outcomes, such as improving health outcomes for BIPOC communities or increasing access to healthcare services in rural areas.
Applicants can access funding between $30,000 and $450,000 to support their initiatives. To be successful, applicants will need to demonstrate a strong understanding of the Oregon context, including the demographic and geographic features that distinguish the state. For example, applicants may need to address the unique challenges faced by rural communities or the specific health disparities experienced by BIPOC communities in Oregon.
When developing their applications, potential applicants should consider the following: What are the key systemic factors contributing to health inequities in Oregon? How can their initiative address these factors and achieve tangible outcomes? How can they build capacity for health equity in Oregon and support the priority outcomes of the grant program?
