This pilot is one of several equity-focused initiatives being introduced in 2023. Foundation President and CEO Dr. Amie Shei explained, “The Foundation has held a long-standing commitment to health equity and is always seeking to improve its own practices in furthering that commitment. We hope these initiatives will lower barriers to access to our grant opportunities aimed at improving the health of those who live or work in Central Massachusetts.” The Foundation will evaluate these new initiatives to assess their effectiveness and to inform future efforts.
