“Miami-Dade County has been identified as the next community for intentional Foundation funding to advance coalition and community-driven solutions to improve health. Foundation applicants are expected to demonstrate the capacity to implement and evaluate community-driven and community-led solutions to meaningfully impact health outcomes with a focus on chronic cardiometabolic conditions and maternal/child health. Applicants are strongly encouraged to: (1) Apply as part of multi-sector coalitions, teams, or partnerships, and (2) Articulate alignment of efforts to the most recently completed Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). The applicant is expected to describe intended outcomes of the proposed initiatives and illustrate the capacity to leverage local resources and partnerships to sustain program implementation and evaluation efforts.

Examples include, but are not limited to:

Community-Clinical Linkages: Novel approaches to delivering and coordinating sustainable healthcare and supportive community services for chronic cardiometabolic conditions and maternal/child health (eg, diabetes, CVD, hypertension). Types of interventions could include care coordination via community health workers (CHW), promotoras or doulas, telehealth, and mobile care.

Increased use of diagnostic testing and screening: Leveraging the value of no-cost testing through Quest Diagnostics to support grant-related activities and increasing patient engagement and activation through health education.
