Ct Health Foundation RFP

Open RFPs

Diverse Consumer and Advocacy

The Connecticut Health Foundation is pleased to announce the availability of funding to increase the diversity of consumers participating in health reform engagement and advocacy that includes health insurance literacy for newly enrolled consumers. CT Health anticipates funding 2 to 4 grant requests ranging in size from $25,000 to $50,000.
CT Health believes trusted voices from within communities of color will more authentically represent the needs and preferences of their communities. By engaging more organizations led by and serving consumers of color in health reform, the state’s health care access and delivery system transformations will be better positioned to equitably serve all Connecticut residents.
