Prior Applicants

Request for Proposals by Region

The Texas Health Community Impact Grant requests proposals by regions: 1) Collin Region; 2) Dallas and Kaufman Region; 3) Denton, Wise and Parker Region; 4) Southern Region; and 5) Tarrant Region.

Texas Health is investing a total of $5 million in grants across its five regions, which spans nine counties. Groups seeking to work collaboratively on innovative upstream approaches to address priorities identified in each region are encouraged to apply for this competitive funding opportunity.

Southern Region

Grantmaking Approach, Goals and Objectives

For the 2027-2028 grant cycle strategy, the Southern Region’s aim is to decrease caregiver stress by increasing community supports in Erath County 76401 and 76446 (Dublin, Huckabay, Lingleville, Morgan Mill and Stephenville); and Johnson County 76009, 76031, 76033, 76059 and 76093 (Alvarado, Cleburne, Keene and Rio Vista).

For this grant, Texas Health Community Impact Southern Region uses the John Hopkins Bayview definition of caregiver, which is “a person who tends to the needs or concerns of a person with shortor long-term limitations due to illness, injury or disability.”

To accomplish this, a two-phased approach will be taken in each county.

• Phase One: Award small grants to several collaboratives to ignite innovative, coordinated program development in alignment with the region’s aim. A collaboration quality assessor will be leveraged to determine the quality of the collaboratives. To strengthen program evaluation development, grant participants will consult with Texas Health Community Impact’s thirdparty evaluator.

• Phase Two: From the Phase One grants, a larger grant will be awarded to the strongest collaborative with the most innovative plan, so they can implement their program. 

This RFP seeks proposals for Phase One. Collaboratives are not expected to have a specific program in mind at the time of application. The purpose of the Phase One grant is to collaboratively create an innovative plan, which will be submitted as a Phase Two proposal. It is expected, however, that collaboratives include members who can articulate a shared vision for how they will work together through this process.
