Moses Cone-Wesley Long Community Health Foundation seeks to provide funding to organizations and programs through two different grant programs—the Community Health Improvement Fund, and a Direct Foundation Grant.  Applications for either of these two grants must address either of the following priorities:

Access to necessary health services with particular emphasis on eliminating the barriers often encountered by persons in need, or

Wellness, with particular attention to:

• Substance abuse, including tobacco
• HIV/AIDS and STDs
• Adolescent pregnancy prevention
• Mental health

In addition to these priorities, the Foundation has a strong and special interest in funding organizational development and technical assistance projects that help communities build the capacity to help themselves, thus being able to improve the health of those in their communities.
