2007 Community Partnerships to Eliminate Health Disparities

The purpose of the Community Partnerships to End Health Disparities Demonstration Grant Program is to improve the health status of targeted minority populations (see definition of minority populations in Section VIII.3 of this announcement) by eliminating disparities. Through this FY 2007 announcement, the OMH is continuing to promote the utilization of community partnerships with locally grounded, grassroots organizations to develop and/ or implement promising practices and model programs targeting minority communities that focus on: Health education promotion, disease risk reduction and increased access to and utilization of preventive health care and treatment services. Support will be provided to projects that emphasize prevention, one of the HHS priorities. The risks of many diseases and health conditions are reduced through preventative actions.
