Required next actionConfirm the applicant is an eligible federally tax-exempt 501(c)(3), accredited school or public/governmental agency located in Colorado, Illinois, Iowa or Oklahoma; review the 2026 Strengthening Families and Communities RFP; frame the project around social drivers of health and TCI's current emphasis on healthy birth outcomes, parenting resilience and avoidance of adverse childhood experiences; submit the abbreviated pre-application by September 3, 2026. Only invited applicants advance to the finalist proposal stage.
Broad Eligibility
Federally tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organizations, accredited schools and public/governmental agencies located in Colorado, Illinois, Iowa or Oklahoma. TCI's 2026 competitive funding centers on social drivers of health and integration of childhood, family and community health.
Atlas Analysis
A strong multi-state community-health opportunity with particular value for rural, underserved and family-centered initiatives. The two-step process reduces initial application burden, but the September 3 pre-application deadline is immediate. Competitive concepts should show a clear connection between upstream social conditions and measurable family or child health outcomes rather than presenting a general service-expansion request.
From Funding to Implementation · School Health Solution
Turn school-health funding into a clinically capable care model.
