Local banks and other businesses, faith communities, civic groups such as Rotary International or the Junior League, and other local resources may provide seed money, matching funds, or in-kind support for community health programs. The Client Protection and Affordable Care Act has created new opportunities for federal and state (not local) funding of health promotion and prevention programs. These opportunities include Community Transformation Grants that will fund programs to improve nutrition, physical activity, and wellness with priority given to strategies to reduce healthcare disparities. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is a private foundation, not a local resource.
