RWJF: Fresh Ideas: Community-based Approaches to Improve Care for Vulnerable Populations

The Vulnerable Populations Portfolio of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is seeking new community-based approaches to health and health care problems that intersect with social factors—such as inadequate housing, poor education and poverty. We are interested in projects that serve hard-to-reach individuals and families, especially new immigrants and refugees, frail older adults and at-risk adolescents.

We are looking for fresh ideas that represent new approaches to the health and health care problems that affect our country’s most vulnerable people. Projects to expand or continue existing programs or services, or to test an existing model in a new community will not be considered for funding.

Amount: Grants up to $300,000 for up to three years in duration are currently available.

Deadline: Proposals accepted on a rolling basis
