“The Denver Foundation released the first Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Colorado Health Access Fund. This statewide Fund supports programs and activities that increase access to behavioral health care and strives to improve behavioral health outcomes for people in Colorado with high health care needs. Over the next eight years (2015 – 2022), the Fund is committed to allocating resources among rural, urban, and suburban areas.
The Denver Foundation commissioned the Colorado Health Institute (CHI) in 2014 to conduct an asset and gap analysis to glean a solid understanding of Colorado’s current diverse health care landscape to guide the development of this Request for Proposals. CHI’s report, which can be found on the Fund’s webpage, informed the Fund’s Advisory Committee and the decision to focus on behavioral health.
Organizations interested in applying for funding can identify the behavioral health need that they want to address in their community. Funding is available for projects, programs, capital improvements, collaboratives, and general operating support. The first round of applications is due May 15th; grants will be awarded in late July 2015. There are two optional opportunities for interested organizations to participate in Q&A sessions prior to the due date, and details can be found at www.denverfoundation.org.
Please contact our Project Manager, Summer Gathercole (CHA@denverfoundation.org) with any questions.” [Source: The Denver Foundation]
