Grants of up to $5,000 are available for up to 15 local governments working with other partners (local governments, health authorities, and other community stakeholders) to better understand priority areas and local needs in their community or region. These grants enable local governments and their partners to learn more about the links between our environment and health, and collectively take action to shape their environment for improved health outcomes.
