Our mission is to unite people, communities and organizations to strengthen rural health in West Virginia.
The West Virginia Rural Health Association focuses on three areas: Organizational Development and Communications; Education, Advocacy, and Policy; and Resource Development. We’re here to raise awareness of rural health issues, invest in policies that make positive changes in our communities, and build a strong, encouraging organization.
The West Virginia Rural Health Association is making funding available for 5 mini-grants not to exceed $5,000 per award to address rural health or health equity issues in West Virginia. All proposals for funding will be reviewed for minimum submission requirements to be eligible for further evaluation. Proposals that fail to follow instructions or satisfy these minimum submission requirements will not be reviewed further. The initial review will ensure applications were received on or before the due date and time and were submitted complete.
Application Deadline: July 19, 2024
