Oak Wilt Cost Share
Purpose
Provide cost-shares to landowners to minimize the spread of oak wilt.
Practices
Trenching, tree removal
About
We have administered the federal cost-share program, the Texas Oak Wilt Suppression Program (TOWSP), to assist landowners in their fight against oak wilt since 1988. Trenching to contain the spread of oak wilt or removal of certain diseased red oaks may qualify for limited cost-shares.
Cost-shares for trenching are capped at 50% of approved costs up to $5,000 per cooperator per year and multiple cooperator project costs are capped at 50% of approved costs up to $7,500 per project per year. Cost-shares for roguing or pushing are capped at 50% of approved costs up to $5,000 per cooperator per year. Cost-shares for removal of certain diseased red oaks are capped at 50% of approved costs with a maximum of $2,000 per cooperator per year.
Mississippi State Department of Health
Mississippi's State Board of Health was established in 1877, and became the Mississippi State Department of Health in 1982.
Mission: The Mississippi State Department of Health's mission is to protect and advance the health, well-being and safety of everyone in Mississippi.
Telehealth Hub Connectivity, Equipment & Education Grant Program
Purpose
The State of Mississippi, through the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH), invites Eligible Providers (defined as Mississippi-located hospitals, physician practices (including solo practitioners), rural health clinics, federally qualified health centers, local health departments, Native American Sovereign Tribe healthcare facilities, certified community behavioral health clinics, substance use disorder facilities, dental care services, and licensed long-term care facilities located in rural areas or servicing rural populations) to apply for funding through the Telehealth Hud Connectivity, Equipment & Education Grant Program (TCE).
TCE is part of the State’s Rural Health Transformation Plan (the Plan) and is funded under the Cooperative Agreement with the Federal Rural Health Transformation Program (RHT Program).
TCE Goal

Brain Research & Innovation Network: Grant Initiative of Texas
The Rainwater Charitable Foundation is launching the Brain Research & Innovation Network: Grant Initiative of Texas (BRING IT), a new funding opportunity designed to support innovative ideas in brain health and dementia research across Texas.
BRING IT will provide one-year seed grants of up to $100,000 to Texas-based academic institutions and nonprofit organizations to accelerate promising research, foster collaboration, and generate the preliminary data and proof-of-concept evidence that can help seed a strong pipeline of innovative brain health and dementia research across Texas.
With the launch of DPRIT, Texas has a unique opportunity to expand its leadership in brain health and dementia research. BRING IT is designed to help seed and strengthen this growing research ecosystem by supporting innovative ideas, building collaborations, and generating early evidence that can help promising research move forward.
What We’re Looking For
RCF is seeking focused, innovative pilot projects that can advance brain health and dementia research while positioning promising ideas for future development and larger-scale funding.
Projects should be designed for completion within 12 months and generate a clear foundation for next-stage research, implementation, validation, or funding. Competitive proposals should address an important unmet need or research opportunity, demonstrate a strong and feasible approach, and show how the work could position the team for future DPRIT or other external funding.
BRING IT is particularly interested in projects that leverage Texas-based expertise, populations, institutions, healthcare systems, community organizations, datasets, infrastructure, or collaborations.
Areas of Interest
BRING IT will support projects aligned with five strategic topic areas reflecting anticipated DPRIT priorities and emerging opportunities in dementia research.
Support the translation of evidence-based innovations into real-world clinical and community settings. Areas of interest include brain and vascular health and dementia risk-reduction programs, blood-based biomarkers, AI-enabled clinical decision support, digital health technologies, community screening programs, care coordination models, and approaches that improve adoption in primary care, rural healthcare systems, and other medically underserved settings.
Projects should emphasize scalability and the potential to improve implementation of evidence-based brain health interventions, delay cognitive decline, promote timely diagnosis, reduce dementia risk, or enhance care.
Develop, validate, or apply New Approach Methodologies that improve the efficiency, predictive power, and translational relevance of dementia research.
Areas of interest include human iPSC-derived models, organoids, organ-on-chip systems, computational and AI-driven disease models, digital twins, neurovascular models, and other innovative platforms that can accelerate therapeutic discovery, biomarker development, or target validation.
Explore how digital health technologies and computational tools can help identify cognitive changes or risk factors within existing healthcare settings.
Projects may incorporate natural language processing, computer vision, clinical decision support systems, wearable sensors, speech analysis, retinal imaging, or other approaches that can be integrated into primary care and community health settings, particularly those serving rural and medically underserved populations.
Use machine learning and computational approaches to identify promising opportunities to repurpose existing regulatory-approved drugs for dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases.
Projects may explore disease-modifying or symptomatic treatment strategies and should establish a computational workflow that can provide a translational bridge to future validation studies.
Develop innovative approaches to identify and reduce dementia risk by addressing modifiable factors associated with cognitive decline.
Areas of interest include physical activity, nutrition, sleep, cardiovascular health, diabetes, obesity, hearing loss, and other modifiable risk factors. Projects may incorporate digital health technologies, wearable devices, AI, or community-based implementation approaches to improve brain health, reduce dementia risk, and support healthy aging across Texas populations.
Vocational Rehabilitation Program Contract
The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (“DEED”) Vocational Rehabilitation Services (“VRS”) requests applications from organizations and businesses to work as a vocational rehabilitation (“VR”) program community partner (“Community Partner”) to provide job-related services to individuals who are eligible for VRS. The State anticipates issuing multiple contracts for this work.
Rape Prevention Education Grant
Sexual violence is any sexual activity where consent is not freely given. Sexual violence affects millions of people each year in the United States and can lead to serious health consequences, including mental health conditions, injury, and chronic physical health problems.
The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS, 2016–2017) reports:
The South Dakota Rape Prevention Education (RPE) program is funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This funding is authorized through the Violence Against Women Act.
The goal of the RPE program is to strengthen sexual violence prevention efforts by focusing on primary prevention: preventing sexual violence before it occurs. It operates in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and six U.S. territories. The CDC provides tools, training, and technical assistance to the RPE program to prevent sexual violence, reduce risk factors, enhance protective factors, promote best practices, analyze data and evaluate prevention efforts.
With the RPE program, South Dakota hopes to lower sexual violence rates against everyone, but especially the target audiences of children, teens, young adults, and Native Americans.
Maine Infrastructure Adaptation Fund
MaineDOT administers the Maine Infrastructure Adaptation Fund (MIAF). The purpose of this funding is for municipal, tribal, and infrastructure districts to adapt their critical infrastructure to reduce vulnerability to climate change.
Funding
MIAF was a recommendation within Maine Won't Wait, the state's four-year climate action plan. In December 2021, Governor Mills announced the creation of MIAF. Since the creation of the fund, MaineDOT has held three rounds of funding, with a fourth opportunity coming in March 2026, through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Resilience Regional Challenge. There are no designated funding sources for MIAF, therefore eligible projects, maximum grant awards, etc., can change depending on the funding source. However, the intent of the program, climate resiliency, has stayed the same.
The grant funding cap depends on the funding source/round but has ranged from $50,000 - $75,000 for scoping and design projects and between $125,000 - $4,000,000 for construction projects. MIAF typically requires a 5% local match share (cash or in-kind) that is raised or appropriated by the entity applying. This program is reimbursement only.
