St. Charles Health System is pleased to announce that its 2022 grant applications are now available. New this year are grants focused on supporting organizations that are in the early stages of adopting inclusion, diversity, equity and acceptance work into their organizational culture. link

In 2020, St. Charles Health System worked to further the organization’s knowledge and understanding around the topics of inclusivity, diversity, equity and acceptance (IDEA). The health system engaged in conversations with the diverse communities it serves, listened to their needs and is now offering support for this work.

To that end, St. Charles has created a new grant category that is centered on supporting community partners that aspire to integrate IDEA best practices in their own organizational culture, helping meet St. Charles’ vision of “creating America’s healthiest community, together.” This grant category is intended to help organizations integrate the foundational principles of IDEA into their organizations to better serve their target population.
