Description
The New Jersey Department of Health’s EXHALE Grant Program aims to reduce the prevalence of uncontrolled asthma among children in prekindergarten through third grade who live in the City of Trenton. It brings together efforts to reduce asthma triggers in children’s homes with linkages to care and care coordination.
The program’s 2026–27 notice identifies it as an opportunity for current EXHALE grantees. The notice describes the population and overall approach but does not identify particular interventions beyond home-trigger reduction, care linkages, and coordination.
