THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: COVID19, Child Health, Dental/Oral Health, Underserved Children, Low-Income Children, Illinois
Deadline: Aug. 2, 2021
“Illinois Children’s Healthcare Foundation (ILCHF) and Delta Dental of Illinois Foundation (DDILF) seek to invest available funding in innovative community-based strategies designed to increase children’s utilization of quality, comprehensive oral health services in communities disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic and poverty. Specifically, funding can be requested for strategies designed to increase utilization of these services in high-risk and underserved communities, with a focus on communities of color and impoverished communities across the State. Applicants will demonstrate how community-led interventions will improve the oral health outcomes for children in their respective communities.
Funded projects will be able to demonstrate innovative, community-informed strategies for addressing and overcoming barriers to the utilization of comprehensive oral health services with the goal of improving oral health outcomes for children in Illinois. Preference will be given to organizations that empower communities to address these challenges. Projects will demonstrate community-driven and informed partnerships in the proposed delivery of services. Specifically, projects will demonstrate how activities will be implemented with regard to addressing barriers and health disparities in communities that bear more than their share of the burden of COVID-19 infection and poverty.”
