| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
Senate Bill 21-181 created a new grant program with the Office of Health Equity and the Health Equity Commission. It created a community element to the existing program and renamed it the Health Disparities and Community Grant Program. Additional funds were also provided to the grant program. For fiscal year 2021-2022, $4,700,000 was appropriated by the General Assembly. The funds must be spent by June 30, 2022 or they revert back to the General Fund. Before a funding request can come before the board, the board needed to adopt rules for the new community grant process. |
