WITH Foundation Invites Applications for Programs Serving Adults With Disabilities

The WITH Foundation was created to provide financial support to organizations that promote comprehensive healthcare for adults with developmental disabilities.

Grants (generally between $30,000 and $50,000) will be awarded in support of programs that improve the delivery of health care to adult consumers with developmental disabilities and include at least one of the following: improve health practitioner competency through education and/or training programs; address the current inadequate reimbursement systems; advance innovations in formal care coordination; enhance public awareness regarding the inadequacies of developmentally disabled care to advance systemic change; increase understanding of supported decision-making in healthcare settings; national efforts in digital health that support designers and developers to include the perspectives/experiences of the IDD community within the design process, to create better technology for all; social policy research; and identify and overcome barriers to high-quality healthcare access.

Applicants must have tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status as defined by the Internal Revenue Service. While applications from the San Francisco Bay Area may be given preferential consideration, applications from other areas in the United States are not excluded.

Letters of Intent are due December 13, 2021, at 5:00 p.m. PT, and selected applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal, to be due on February 4, 2022, 5:00 p.m. PT.
