Intermountain Health is offering Social Determinants of Health Grants to programs and services that align with their priorities of improving nutrition security and stable, quality housing through wraparound and support services. This grant program is aligned with Intermountain's mission to address critical social determinants of health, recognizing that these factors profoundly impact community well-being. The grants aim to support initiatives that create healthier communities by tackling the root causes of health disparities. The target beneficiaries for these grants are low-income, vulnerable populations, served by social service agencies and healthcare agencies. The impact goals are to improve nutrition security and secure stable and quality housing. Projects are expected to demonstrate a collaborative approach between health and social service agencies, or provide strong health outcomes if an agency applies independently. The grants aim to foster partnerships that lead to comprehensive and sustainable improvements in the lives of these populations. The program's priorities and focuses are explicitly on improving nutrition security and enhancing stable and quality housing through integrated support services. Grant applicants must demonstrate how their program or service directly addresses at least one of these two Intermountain social determinants of health priorities. The theory of change suggests that by directly investing in programs addressing these fundamental needs, Intermountain Health can create a measurable positive impact on community health outcomes. Expected outcomes include improved access to nutritious food and increased access to and retention of stable and quality housing for vulnerable populations. Measurable results will be based on the impact these programs have on the identified social determinants of health, with an emphasis on clearly defined goals and outcomes. For example, successful programs might demonstrate a reduction in food insecurity rates or an increase in the number of individuals securing and maintaining stable housing within the target communities.
