Be the change. The nccPA Health Foundation challenges PAs to take responsibility for making a change to improve health and offers a funding opportunity to support PA efforts. This grant is for PAs to lead, design, and execute activities that expand access to care as a strategy for promoting more equitable care. These grants are intended to encourage, facilitate, and support volunteerism and service-learning, mechanisms that allow PAs to leverage their unique skills and training to support patient education and care in their communities. 

This program is for certified PAs, PA organizations (educational programs or constituent organizations), and PA students. Grants are considered on a rolling basis and awarded based on merit, in amounts up to $1,000 until all funds are expended. Applicants should be a certified PA or PA student (working with a PA faculty member at an accredited PA program). (Co-applicants may be interprofessional colleagues.) Funds are generally disbursed to the organization sponsoring the project. Individuals coordinating outreach activities are also welcome to apply.
