The Maryland Community Health Resources Commission (CHRC) was created by the Maryland General Assembly in 2005 to expand access to health care services in underserved communities in Maryland. The CHRC is an independent commission operating within the Maryland Department of Health (MDH), whose 11 members are appointed by the Governor. Since its inception, the CHRC has awarded 985 grants totaling $396 million, supporting programs in every jurisdiction of the state. These programs have collectively served more than 779,000 Marylanders, and grants awarded by the CHRC have enabled grantees to leverage $54 million in additional federal and private/non-profit resources.
The next CHRC meeting will be held at 10:00 am on Tuesday, December 9, 2025. The meeting will be held in Room 158, 45 Calvert Street, Annapolis, MD 21401.
