Funding Opportunity

Thanks to funding from NMDOH/OSAH, we are offering $10-20K grants to schools or medical entities that wish to expand SBHC services.
 
This opportunity to be funded will allow grantees to assess and plan for expansion of services, including new brick and mortar SBHCs, new hours of services at existing SBHCs, new telehealth services and new mobile services.
 
Goals of the 2022 New Mexico SBHC Planning Grants:
  • Facilitate expansion of SBHCs, where needed, throughout New Mexico.
  • Identify gaps that exist for child and adolescent physical, mental, and social health needs.
  • Determine the need and readiness of the school and community for an SBHC model of care.
  • Facilitate school system, healthcare system, and community collaboration to develop a plan to address gaps in child and adolescent health.
  • Prepare grantee to apply for New Mexico Department of Health funding for opening a SBHC or expanding SBHC services in Spring 2023.
