Vaccine Community Mobilization Grants

With COVID cases rising across Chicagoland, it’s more important than ever to make sure that communities of color have access to the COVID vaccine. That’s why the Chicagoland Vaccine Partnership and Health First Collaborative provided $1,000,000 in vaccine community mobilization grants to community organizations who can get the people they work with everyday vaccinated. 

These grants provide flexible funding to organizations that have deep trust in their communities, but are not usually associated with public health. Grantees include food pantries, churches, youth boxing programs, and violence prevention organizations. Read more about these grants here.
