Current Funding Opportunities
San Joaquin Valley Health Fund IHHEEL Learning and Advocacy Grants
We are pleased to announce Round 9 of the San Joaquin Valley Health Fund IHHEEL (Immigration, Health, Housing, Education, Environmental Justice, Land Use and Planning and Digital Divide) funding opportunities. For this round, the San Joaquin Valley Health Fund will prioritize four issue areas: Immigration, Health, Housing and Environmental Justice. These priorities were identified after evaluating feedback collected at this year’s Equity on the Road and to address ongoing concerns of climate change in the region.
