GRANTS AWARDED
In 2016, the REACH Foundation began implementing a strategic plan that called for directing our investments toward three outcome areas – enrolling all eligible people in health coverage, closing the coverage gap, and strengthening the safety net system to provide high quality, integrated care. Grant decisions and other program investments are assessed within this framework.
