 CHRC Request for Applications - FY 2025 Annual RFA Awards Made

Annapolis, MD – The Maryland Community Health Resources Commission (CHRC) recently awarded 11 grants totaling $7 million to support programs across the state that will expand health care access in underserved communities, serve vulnerable residents, and promote overall health equity.  These programs are expected to serve more than 11,700 Marylanders.

“The Commission congratulates these grantees for developing these innovative and important programs," said the Honorable Edward J. Kasemeyer, CHRC Chair.  “The Commission looks forward to working with the grantees in the coming weeks and months as they implement their programs."  This year's Call for Proposals generated a total of 70 proposals requesting $46.4 million in funding requests.  The CHRC targeted four types of projects this year:  (1) diabetes and chronic disease; (2) maternal and child health; (3) behavioral health, including mental health and the ongoing impact of the opioid crisis; and (4) oral health care, in support of the state's Medicaid Dental Benefit.

In this year's RFA, the CHRC prioritized applications that serve areas identified under Governor Moore's Engaging Neighborhoods, Organizations, Unions, Governments and Households (ENOUGH) Initiative, as well as projects that support Maryland's implementation of the state's Advancing All-Payer Health Equity Approaches and Development (AHEAD) Model.  Eight grants collectively will serve 83 ENOUGH eligible zip codes across the state.
