A message to our grantees

A note from President & CEO Tiffany Donelson

To our grantees,

As the federal landscape changes, I know many of you are thinking about how this will affect your work and your communities. I wanted to share our approach.

Staying the course: We adopted our strategic plan last year based on the challenges we saw in Connecticut and the places we thought our work could make a difference. While the landscape is changing, our priorities will not.

Understanding: We know that our grantees might need to adapt to changing circumstances. If you need flexibility, we are here to support you. Please reach out to your program officer if you anticipate any shifts or changes in your current grant.

Listening: If you find additional needs in your community, we are here to listen and see if there’s a way we can provide support.

Our team deeply appreciates the work you do on behalf of your community and health equity. Like you, we are working through what we can do to continue to advance health equity in a policy landscape that we anticipate will be increasingly challenging. As you face these challenges, please know that we stand with you and are grateful for your partnership.

With sincere thanks,

Tiffany
