Eligible Applicants

Additional Requirements

Applicant must be a governmental entity (health department, hospital district, university medical center, and other State or local agency); a federally qualified health center (“FQHC”) (which is a safety net provider that provides services typically given in an outpatient clinic); or a nonprofit entity, with 501(c)(3) status. B. Applicant must have a Texas address. A post office box may be used when the Application is submitted, but the Applicant must conduct business at a physical location in Texas prior to the date that the Grant Agreement is awarded. C. Applicant's proposed service area must include at least one community in Harris County that is designated as either “At-Risk” or “Distressed” in Form D, Zip Codes In the City of Houston and Harris County Texas Served by Project, based on information obtained in the Economic Innovation Group’s Distressed Communities Index. Zip codes ranked as “prosperous” or “comfortable” may also be included but are not required. These areas are ranked higher in job growth and development, have higher median incomes, and lower poverty rates and as a result, are less likely to have the target population living in these areas.
