The Oregon Office of Rural Health is now accepting applications for the 2026-2027 Incubator grant cycle! The deadline to apply is Jan. 23, 2026 (by 5:00 p.m. PT).
The mission of the Rural Population Health Incubator Program (the Incubator) is to strengthen community health in rural Oregon by providing grants to support population health initiatives led by rural hospitals, clinics, public health departments and community-based nonprofit organizations. These programs focus on reducing health disparities and improving well-being in underserved communities.
Through this program, grantees will:
- Receive up to a $10,000 grant to support their population health program;
- Join a cohort of other Incubator grantees and attend three cohort meetings throughout the grant cycle; and
- Receive specialized support from ORH, including resources, information and referrals to experts to assist their program.
