Voices for Healthy Kids aims to support and fund advocacy campaigns that promote public policy changes focusing on health equity and well-being at tribal, state, and local levels.
The Policy Campaign Grant Opportunity is designed to back strategic advocacy campaigns aimed at equitable policy reforms benefiting children's health, particularly among groups facing significant health disparities. These campaigns should foster tribal, state, or local policy changes. The grant prioritizes supporting organizations with leadership from marginalized communities, including Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino/a, American Indian, Alaska Native, Asian American, Pacific Islander, and low-income families. Funding amounts range from $50,000 to $200,000 over a period of up to 18 months, covering both non-lobbying and lobbying activities. Applications are evaluated based on criteria such as organizational diversity in staff, board, and leadership.
