Award recipients will also support TA for cities, counties, and/or states on Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) priority topics such as maternal and infant mortality and readiness for obstetric emergencies, and emerging MCH issues (recent examples of which include congenital syphilis, environmental health threats, Medicaid redetermination, and vaccine promotion).

The Marian and Pink Happ Fund is a grant program dedicated to supporting underprivileged children throughout California. This initiative directly aligns with a core mission to improve the well-being and future prospects of vulnerable youth. By providing financial assistance, the fund aims to address critical needs in the areas of health and human services, ultimately contributing to a more equitable society where all children have opportunities to thrive. The primary beneficiaries of this fund are underprivileged children residing in any of California's counties. The impact goals are centered on enhancing the lives of these children by ensuring access to essential health services and vital human services support. Through these efforts, the fund seeks to alleviate the burdens faced by these children and their families, fostering environments conducive to their healthy development and overall success. The fund prioritizes organizations that can effectively deliver health and human services programs. While specific expected outcomes are not explicitly detailed, the focus on "underprivileged children" and "health" and "human services" suggests a theory of change rooted in direct intervention and support. Measurable results would likely include the number of children served, the types of services provided, and improvements in health indicators or access to social support systems for the target population.
