The Willamette Health Council (WHC) is pleased to launch the 2025-2026 Community Impact Grants Program. We are accepting grant applications until June 29th, 2025. Grant awards will be announced in November 2025 and are intended to support projects taking place in calendar year 2026.

For the 2025-2026 cycle, our Community Impact Grants Program seeks to support projects within the following Impact Areas:

  • Access to Healthcare: improving access to healthcare services and providers (physical, behavioral, and dental, including supports and services people might need to access healthcare).
  • Mental Health & Substance Use: improving mental health and/or reducing substance use in the community.
  • Housing Stability: providing the services and supports that people may need to remain housed or to prevent becoming unhoused.

We will consider requests up to $100,000 for projects that serve the Marion-Polk region.

Priority will be given to projects that meet the following criteria:

  • Connect with more than one Impact Area
  • Demonstrate equitable access
  • Include cultural and linguistic responsiveness
  • Are led by a non-profit organization

Applicants submit applications using the WHC’s online system. Organizations applying for funding to the WHC for the first time are required to create an account within this system. Those who are returning applicants should utilize their organization’s existing account.
