Health grants with open deadlines

440 currently open · refreshed daily

Health is the single biggest federal grant category by dollar volume, driven by HHS agencies: HRSA (community health, rural health), SAMHSA (behavioral health and substance use), CDC (public health), and NIH (research). Community-based nonprofits fit best in HRSA and SAMHSA programs, which regularly fund direct services; NIH listings are mostly for research institutions. Health grants tend to have the longest and most technical applications, but also some of the highest award ceilings and renewal rates. If you're new to federal health funding, look for 'capacity building' or 'community' in the title first. Every listing below is currently open, with live deadlines, refreshed daily from grants.gov.
