Description

This funding opportunity supports U.S. nonprofit organizations in collecting, analyzing, and using local data to address inequities in the physical, economic, and social conditions of specific communities. The program centers on empowering community organizations and residents to leverage data for understanding challenges, setting priorities, advocating for change, and holding stakeholders accountable—ultimately advancing health equity at the local level. Projects must focus on one eligible condition (built environment, climate/environment, community safety, healthy food access, housing, or transportation) and are expected to build on applicants’ existing knowledge and relationships. The Urban Institute serves as the national coordinating center, providing technical assistance and facilitating peer learning among grantees.
