The Primary Care Grant Program offers funding to provide access to primary care, mental health, and dental care services for low income individuals and families living in Utah that do not have health insurance and are not eligible for CHIP, Medicare, or Medicaid.

The goals of the program are to:

• Improve the health of eligible individuals
• Provide continuity of care to eligible individuals who receive ambulatory primary care services
• Increase the number of eligible individuals served in the target populations (working poor, children, elderly, Native Americans, migrant and seasonal farm workers, individuals with chronic diseases, the homeless, individuals with limited English speaking proficiency, and single heads of household)
• Increase the number of eligible encounters by individuals in the target populations
• Increase the organizational capacity of the grantee to provide ambulatory primary health care services to eligible individuals and their families by increasing ongoing and long-term capacity

Nonprofit, for-profit, and public entities that provide primary healthcare for low income, uninsured, and under-insured individuals in Utah are eligible to apply.

Up to $100,000 per agency/organization.

Links to application guidance, the online application, and additional resources are available on the program website when applications are being accepted.

Applicants may submit separate applications for distinct projects or service sites; however, a single agency will only receive a total of up to $100,000.
