Transitions in Care for Justice-Involved Populations
Deadline: June 10, 2024

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services, anticipates making awards to 51 health centers of up to $1 million each for their innovative work to support transitions in care prior to release from incarceration. The funded health centers will implement approaches that focus on:

  • Reducing drug overdose risk
  • Addressing mental health and substance use disorder treatment needs
  • Managing chronic conditions
  • Preventing, screening, diagnosing, and treating hepatitis C, HIV, syphilis, and other infectious diseases

Health centers can also use funds made available through the funding opportunity to provide case management services that address key social drivers of health, such as housing and food insecurity, financial strain, access to transportation, and intimate partner violence. Facilitating the successful reentry of individuals returning to the community will enhance public health and safety.

USDA Rural Economic Development Loan/Grant Program
Deadline: Quarterly
The Rural Economic Development Loan and Grant program provides funding for rural projects through local utility organizations. USDA provides zero-interest loans to local utilities which they, in turn, pass through to local businesses (ultimate recipients) for projects that will create and retain employment in rural areas. The ultimate recipients repay the lending utility directly. The utility is responsible for repayment to USDA. USDA provides grants to local utility organizations which use the funding to establish Revolving Loan Funds (RLF). Loans are made from the revolving loan fund to projects that will create or retain rural jobs. When the revolving loan fund is terminated, the grant is repaid to USDA.
