The Local Arts Program (LAP) Grant, administered by the Somerset County Cultural & Heritage Commission (SCC&HC), aims to support local arts development within Somerset County, New Jersey. This program is an initiative of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts (NJSCA) and is designed to channel funds to officially designated county arts agencies, with the SCC&HC serving as that agency for Somerset County. The grant's mission aligns with fostering public participation in the arts and increasing accessibility to artistic programs and services for Somerset County residents. The target beneficiaries are Somerset County-based non-profit organizations incorporated in New Jersey and designated tax-exempt (501(c)3 or (c)4), as well as Somerset County-based governmental agencies or commissions under a municipality or township. The primary impact goal is to enhance the local arts landscape by enabling organizations to offer programs that benefit residents and to improve the management of local arts organizations. The program prioritizes organizations that provide programs or services that increase access to the Arts, expand upon creative placemaking initiatives, or seek to improve the management of local arts organizations. Eligibility also requires that the proposed arts program or project takes place within Somerset County and directly benefits its residents. Programs within educational or religious institutions are generally ineligible unless they are after-school programs that are broadly advertised, open, and welcoming to the general public. Expected outcomes include a more vibrant and accessible arts community in Somerset County, increased public participation in various artistic endeavors, and strengthened local arts organizations through improved management and program delivery. Grant applications are evaluated by an independent peer panel, ensuring a competitive and merit-based selection process. Recommendations for funding are then submitted to the SCC&HC for final approval, with grants authorized by resolution with the Somerset County Board of County Commissioners, reinforcing accountability and local oversight.

The Clean Water Grant Program (CWGP), offered by the County of Cumberland, Pennsylvania, provides financial support for "shovel-ready" initiatives aimed at enhancing local water quality within Cumberland County. While the description doesn't explicitly state a "foundation mission alignment" or "foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change," it can be inferred that the program aligns with broader environmental stewardship and public health goals, likely stemming from the county's responsibility to manage and improve local resources. The program's core objective is to maximize the impact of limited pollution reduction funding by investing in priority water quality projects. The target beneficiaries of the CWGP are diverse, including non-profit 501(c) organizations, municipal governments, educational institutions, and businesses with headquarters in Cumberland County. The impact goals are directly tied to improving local water quality. The program focuses on developing a water quality project backlog to leverage additional funding, pursuing multifaceted pollution reduction strategies with various stakeholders, accelerating progress toward county pollution reduction goals, and institutionalizing an annual project identification process integrated into county CAP development plans. The priorities and focuses of the CWGP revolve around "shovel-ready" projects that deliver tangible water quality improvements. While there is no minimum or maximum grant award, projects with a local match will receive higher priority, indicating a preference for initiatives that demonstrate community investment and shared responsibility. The program anticipates approximately $500,000 will be available for subawards in 2025, with funding decisions at the sole discretion of Cumberland County and contingent upon PADEP approval. Expected outcomes and measurable results include enhanced local water quality, increased leveraging of additional government and nonprofit funding for water quality projects, a more coordinated approach to pollution reduction among various stakeholders, accelerated progress towards county-wide pollution reduction targets, and a sustainable, integrated annual process for identifying and developing water quality initiatives. The grant period for performance is from March 2025 to December 2025, emphasizing a focus on projects that can demonstrate impact within a relatively short timeframe.

The Rural and Underserved Clinical Rotations (RUCR) grant program, authorized by Minnesota Statutes Sec 144.1505, aims to enhance health professional training by funding eligible physician, physician assistant, advanced practice registered nurse, pharmacy, dentistry, dental therapy, and mental health professional programs. The core mission is to augment existing clinical training to include rural and underserved rotations or specialized training experiences like credential or certificate rural tracks. This initiative aligns with a broader strategic priority to improve healthcare access and quality in Minnesota's rural and underserved communities by strengthening the pipeline of healthcare professionals willing and trained to serve in these areas. The target beneficiaries of this grant program are healthcare training programs located in Minnesota, and, by extension, the students enrolled in these programs who will gain critical experience in rural and underserved settings. Ultimately, the program seeks to impact the healthcare landscape of Minnesota by increasing the availability of primary care and mental health services in areas that currently face shortages. The grant's focus is on expanding training opportunities, facilitating recruitment and retention of students and faculty, and connecting students with appropriate clinical training sites. Key priorities and focuses include establishing or expanding rotations and clinical training, supporting recruitment, training, and retention of students and faculty, and facilitating connections between students and clinical training sites, internships, practicums, or externship activities. Emphasis is also placed on travel and lodging for students, faculty, student, and preceptor salaries, incentives, or other financial support, and the development and implementation of cultural competency training. For physician and dentist training, a specific requirement is that expanded training must involve rotations in primary care settings within rural communities. Expected outcomes and measurable results include MDH anticipating awarding $1,500,000 through approximately 4-6 grants, with an estimated award maximum of $400,000 per grant. The grant duration is 1 year, from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2025. The success of the program will likely be measured by the number of new or expanded rural and underserved rotations established, the number of students participating in these experiences, and the subsequent impact on the availability of healthcare professionals in targeted communities. This reflects a theory of change where targeted investment in training infrastructure and student support will directly lead to a more robust and equitably distributed healthcare workforce.
