Strengthening the Safety Net Grant Opportunities
Core Operating Support Grants
The Obici Healthcare Foundation partners with local organizations that provide critical health services to people who face challenges getting care. This includes individuals who are uninsured, underinsured, on Medicaid, or have limited access to healthcare. These organizations include emergency rooms, free and charitable clinics, local health departments, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and community health centers, among others.
Core Operating Support grants can provide multi-year funding to eligible organizations. These grants help:
- Provide primary care, mental health, and dental services directly to patients in a clinic setting.
- Connect patients with other community services that address urgent health needs and the social issues that affect long-term health (like housing, food, or transportation).
- Expand access to care through telehealth and mobile health services.
- Support training and development for healthcare workers to ensure safety-net providers can continue delivering effective care.
- Improve the availability, accessibility, and quality of care for people who face barriers to getting the health services they need.
Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, with a multi-step Request for Proposal (RFP) opening in February 2025. Download the RFP for more details and see below for additional information.
