CHC seeks to catalyze measurable improvements in community health outcomes. Our funding directly supports efforts to make underserved communities healthier places to live, work, learn, play and pray.

Projects must address the domains: (1) Built Environment, (2) Community Safety, (3) Environmental Exposures, (4) Healthy Behaviors, (4) Social/Economic Factors.
Applicants must commit to improving the health of community residents by focusing on activities that align to at least one of these domains.
