Summary
A transformative funding opportunity is now available to enhance blood lead testing for children in King County, offering vital resources to nonprofit organizations and community-based entities dedicated to health equity. This initiative seeks to support projects aimed at increasing testing rates, particularly among communities disproportionately affected by environmental toxins, including Medicaid-eligible families, immigrant and refugee households, and BIPOC communities.
With approximately $900,000 budgeted for this endeavor, selected applicants can expect substantial financial backing to facilitate impactful programming over a three-year period.
Eligible entities, including nonprofits, Federally Qualified Health Centers, tribes, and governmental agencies, are encouraged to apply. Organizations do not need prior experience in lead and toxics work; rather, a strong connection to pediatric providers and the focus communities, alongside a commitment to environmental justice, is paramount.
This inclusive approach invites a diverse range of organizations to participate in addressing critical public health challenges.
The funding aims to empower applicants to develop community-driven initiatives that not only increase testing rates but also foster greater awareness and education about lead exposure risks. By investing in local partnerships, this opportunity presents a chance to make significant strides in improving health outcomes for the most vulnerable populations.
Interested applicants can access resources and technical assistance to strengthen their proposals, ensuring accessibility and support throughout the application process. This funding initiative represents an essential step toward safeguarding the health of children in King County, ultimately contributing to a healthier, more equitable future for all families.
Engage with this opportunity to make a lasting impact in your community while securing the necessary resources to advance your mission.
