Improving Maternal & Child Health
Access to Healthcare
Everyone deserves access to quality healthcare. Here’s how we help.
Home Visiting Grants
At Obici Healthcare Foundation, we recognize families thrive when they have access to the support and resources needed during pregnancy and a child’s earliest years. Home visiting programs play a vital role in reaching families where they are — in their homes and community. These voluntary programs offer trusted, evidence-based guidance to expectant parents and families with young children. By funding home visiting programs, we are investing in a model of care that has been shown to produce lasting benefits for children, caregivers, and the local community.
Home Visiting grants can provide multi-year funding to eligible organizations. These grants help fund:
- Staff salaries and benefits (including home visitors and supervisors)
- Staff training and professional development
- Travel for home visitors to participants’ homes (not for participants’ travel)
- Supplies and materials related to home visiting
- Technical assistance (e.g., evaluation, communications, quality improvement)
- Expansion of the local referral network
- Outreach, enrollment, and retention activities
- Staff time and travel to attend quarterly convenings hosted by the Foundation and/or its partners
Grants are awarded on a competitive basis, and the funding consideration period opens in August 2025. Download the RFP for more details and see below for additional information.
