Three new grant opportunities are now open: EMS Capacity Assessment, Psychiatric Emergency Services, and Workforce Expansion. The goal?

Applications close July 24th and August 17th, and with over 700 applicants already in the first round, the state’s ready to transform healthcare from the ground up.
