The Community Benefits Grant Program focuses on increasing health care access to primary care and mental health care services for uninsured and underinsured individuals through direct financial support and in-kind lab services to free clinics, federally qualified health centers and other nonprofit agencies. We are proud to partner with 30 organizations within the Greater Houston Area that focus on providing direct health care services via the Community Benefits Grant and the Mental Health Innovation Grant.
