Grants of up to $150,000 are available for initiatives that use Health Impact Assessment (HIA) techniques to help policymakers assess proposed projects and programs in terms of their impact on health consequences and costs.

The Health Impact Project — a collaboration of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Pew Charitable Trusts — will award grants of $25,000 to $150,000 to demonstrate the effectiveness of HIAs and promote their use in policymaking at all levels of government. Certain applications for grants of more than $150,000 also may be considered on an exceptional basis. Programs must be completed within 24 months.

Application deadline is open. For full details, see the RWJF website.
