The Office of Minority Health announces the availability of funds for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 grant awards under the authority of Section 1707 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C.
§ 300u-6).
OMH is dedicated to improving the health of racial and ethnic minority populations through
the development of health policies and programs that will help eliminate health disparities and advance health equity.
Through its demonstration grants, OMH supports the identification of effective approaches for improving health outcomes with the ultimate goal of promoting sustainability and dissemination of these approaches.
This particular grant aligns with HHS Strategic Goal 2:
Protect the Health of Americans Where They Live, Learn, Work and Play.
It also supports the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health’s vision to “transform the current ‘sick-care system’ into a ‘health-promoting system’.”
