The Community Foundation San Luis Obispo County's "Growing Together: An LGBTQ Fund" is an initiative established in 2001 to address the needs of the LGBTQI community within San Luis Obispo County. This fund aligns with the foundation's broader mission to support charitable organizations and promote philanthropy by specifically focusing on providing grants and raising community awareness for this often underserved population. The foundation aims to foster a more inclusive and equitable environment through targeted funding and community engagement efforts, reflecting its strategic priority of addressing critical community needs. The grant program primarily targets 501c3 organizations within San Luis Obispo County that are implementing programs benefiting the LGBTQ+ community. The core beneficiaries include queer and trans people of color (QTPOC), transgender and nonbinary individuals, and LGBTQ+ people in areas lacking affirming community spaces. The overarching impact goals are to reduce discrimination, advance healthcare equity, improve physical and mental health outcomes, and enhance community connectedness and safety for LGBTQ+ individuals throughout the county. The fund prioritizes one-year grants for programs that focus on three key areas. First, it seeks to demonstrate strategies to reach out to, involve, and center QTPOC, recognizing the amplified discrimination they face due to intersecting systems of oppression like racism, sexism, and heterosexism. Second, it focuses on advancing medical and mental health care for transgender and nonbinary people, addressing the significant health disparities, stigma, and lack of culturally competent care they encounter. Third, the fund aims to create queer spaces in currently unserved areas of the county, acknowledging the importance of safe community spaces for promoting safety, connectedness, and mental well-being among LGBTQ+ individuals. Expected outcomes and measurable results include a reduction in health disparities for QTPOC and transgender/nonbinary people, evidenced by changes in organizational policies and practices, and improved physical and mental health statistics. For queer spaces, outcomes would involve the expansion of resources for local organizations to create physical spaces and the development of new, sustainable support or wellness groups. The foundation's theory of change posits that by supporting initiatives that directly address discrimination, improve access to care, and create affirming community environments, it can contribute to a more equitable, healthy, and connected San Luis Obispo County for its LGBTQ+ residents. The fund's commitment to supporting creative initiatives and strategies that move QTPOC from the margins to the center is a testament to this strategic priority.

This grant aligns with a mission to engage seniors in quality, comprehensive dental care, ensuring access to essential health services for an vulnerable population. The funding aims to support dental practices experienced in providing such care, emphasizing community well-being and health equity. The primary beneficiaries of this program are District residents aged 65 and older. The impact goals are centered on improving the dental health and welfare of these seniors, with a particular focus on increasing their engagement in comprehensive dental care. This initiative seeks to address the unique dental health challenges faced by older adults, ultimately enhancing their quality of life. The program prioritizes dental practices that are for-profit or non-profit, licensed in the District of Columbia, experienced in providing comprehensive services to seniors, actively billing DC Medicaid and Medicare, and experienced in charging patients according to a formal sliding-scale fee policy. These criteria ensure that the funding supports providers capable of delivering high-quality, accessible care to the target demographic, including those with limited financial resources. Expected outcomes include a measurable increase in the number of seniors receiving comprehensive dental care and an improvement in the overall dental health status of District residents aged 65 and older.
