The Healthy Communities Grant Program was launched in 2003 and supports EPA’s mission by integrating many EPA New England programs including Air Quality Outreach, Asthma and Indoor Air, Children’s Environmental Health, Clean, Green and Healthy Schools Initiative, Energy Efficiency Program,
Environmental Justice Program, Pollution Prevention, Sustainable Materials Management, Toxics and Pesticides, and Water Infrastructure (Stormwater, Wastewater, and Drinking Water).
The goal of the program is to combine available resources and best identify competitive projects that will achieve measurable environmental and public health results in communities across New England.
Eligible applicants are invited to apply to EPA New England for funding consideration under this competitive grant program.
The Healthy Communities Grant Program anticipates awarding approximately 15 cooperative agreements from these project applications in 202 3.
