Grant proposals are being sought for projects that focus on community health in the Copper Country.
The Portage Health Foundation is currently accepting proposals for grants that address adolescent health and mental or behavioral health issues.
These two areas were identified as health risk factors in a recent Community Health Risks Needs Assessment.
The foundation’s Executive Director Kevin Store says they are also trying to bring various community groups together for a common cause.
The Portage Health Foundation operates according to a group of core clusters including deploying and developing capital, advocating for other non-profits, engaging community resources and building partnerships.
Grant applications can be downloaded from the Portage Health Foundation website. (http://www.phfgive.org/)
