While a specific foundation mission statement isn't explicitly detailed, the grant's focus strongly suggests an alignment with improving public health outcomes, particularly in the realm of mental health for younger populations. This initiative directly addresses critical health challenges within Idaho and Utah, specifically targeting Cassia and Minidoka counties, indicating a localized yet impactful approach to community health improvement. The primary target beneficiaries of this grant are families with children. The impact goals are clearly defined, centering on reducing negative mental health indicators. These include a reduction in suicide deaths, a decrease in frequent mental distress (such as anxiety and depression), and a reduction in opioid misuse. These goals reflect a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted nature of mental health challenges facing families today, aiming for tangible improvements in the well-being of the target population. The grant prioritizes several key areas to achieve its objectives. These include mental well-being as an overarching theme, alongside specific focuses on prevention and early intervention strategies. Comprehensive programs that engage the entire family are highly valued, as is the implementation of trauma-informed systems specifically designed for young children. Furthermore, the grant seeks to support and strengthen community coalitions, recognizing the importance of collaborative efforts in creating sustainable mental health support systems. These priorities suggest a strategic approach that emphasizes holistic care, early intervention, and community-wide engagement. Expected outcomes and measurable results from this grant are directly tied to the stated impact goals. Programs are anticipated to demonstrate a measurable reduction in suicide deaths, decreased instances of frequent mental distress, and a decline in opioid misuse among the beneficiary population. While specific metrics for "prevention and early intervention," "comprehensive family programs," "trauma-informed systems," and "community coalitions" are not detailed, the expectation is that funded initiatives will contribute to these broader outcomes. The funding structure, allowing grant awards between $5,000 and $50,000 and requiring an organization's annual operating budget to be at least five times the grant request, implies a focus on supporting established and capable organizations that can demonstrate effective program delivery and measurable impact.

Expected outcomes include a measurable improvement in community health indicators and enhanced access to healthcare services for York County residents.

The Indiana Department of Health’s (IDOH) Maternal and Child Health Division aims to fund community-based organizations, local health departments, hospitals, and not-for-profit organizations in Indiana. The primary goal is to implement evidence-based or promising practice programs focused on teen pregnancy prevention and positive youth development. This initiative aligns with the IDOH's mission to improve maternal and child health outcomes across the state by empowering youth to make healthy decisions and avoid risky behaviors. The funding is provided by the Family and Youth Services Bureau and the IDOH, Maternal and Child Health Division (MCH). The program's target beneficiaries are youth within Indiana, with an intentional focus on high-risk groups. These include youth in or aging out of foster care, those in the child welfare system, idle youth (not working or in school), school dropouts, youth living in poverty, youth in juvenile centers, traditionally underserved racial or ethnic groups, LGBTQIA+ youth, and runaway or homeless youth. The impact goals are to reduce teen pregnancy rates, promote self-regulation, encourage healthy relationships, and foster goal setting through a positive youth development framework. The priorities and focuses of this grant include providing evidence-based sexual risk avoidance education curricula that normalize voluntarily refraining from non-marital sexual activity. Programs should also emphasize the benefits of self-regulation, success sequencing, healthy relationships, and goal setting. Applicants may also implement the Teen Café Model alongside an evidence-based curriculum. Additionally, the program prioritizes teaching youth skills to avoid risky behaviors, explaining how alcohol and drug use increases vulnerability, defining "consent" and "active consent," and teaching the importance of attaining self-sufficiency before engaging in sexual activity. Where appropriate, mentoring, counseling, and adult supervision should be provided to support these objectives. Expected outcomes include a decrease in teen pregnancy rates among participating youth, an increase in youth demonstrating self-regulation and goal-setting behaviors, and improved decision-making regarding sexual activity. Measurable results will likely be tracked through participant engagement, knowledge acquisition on consent and risk avoidance, and, ultimately, a reduction in pregnancy rates within the target populations. The strategic priority is to equip Indiana's youth with the knowledge and skills necessary for positive development and to avoid the risks associated with early sexual activity, thereby improving long-term health and well-being outcomes. The theory of change posits that by providing comprehensive, evidence-based education and support, at-risk youth will be empowered to make informed choices that lead to healthier lives and a reduced incidence of teen pregnancy. Projects are scheduled to start October 1, 2024, and conclude September 30, 2026, contingent on federal funding availability.

The Beacon House Request for Proposals (RFP) from the Gateway Foundation aims to expand substance use disorder (SUD) services in Monterey County, California, through community-based funding. This initiative directly aligns with the Foundation's mission to re-invest in the Monterey County community by providing flexible grant funds to support local organizations. The program seeks to infuse financial resources for the operating, supporting, and/or renovation of SUD services, thereby improving access to treatment and recovery supports in the region. The target beneficiaries are individuals in Monterey County experiencing substance use disorder, with a specific focus on residents who make up at least 50% of the clients served by recipient organizations. The impact goals are centered on expanding access to SUD services and recovery support, as well as increasing the capacity of service providers. By providing flexible one-time costs, the Gateway Foundation intends to address critical gaps in service provision and enhance the overall health and well-being of the community. The program prioritizes established 501(c)3 non-profit organizations that are licensed by the state of California to provide behavioral health services, currently operate in Monterey County, and utilize evidence-based services. Grant funds can be used for a variety of purposes including staff development, training, equipment, repairs & maintenance, expansion of services/access, and reasonable start-up operational costs (not exceeding 50% of the total funding request). This flexible approach ensures that the funds can be tailored to the specific needs of local providers to achieve the greatest impact. Expected outcomes include improved access to SUD treatment and recovery services, enhanced capacity of behavioral health organizations in Monterey County, and a strengthened network of local service providers. The Gateway Foundation's strategic priority is to support organizations that can demonstrate a history of providing behavioral health services, sound financial management, and a client base predominantly from Monterey County. The underlying theory of change is that by investing directly in local, established providers, and allowing for flexible use of funds for one-time costs, access to essential SUD services will significantly improve, leading to better community health outcomes. The project period for funding is September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2025.
