In keeping with its mission, the Mt. Diablo Health Care District has established a grant program that makes funds available for needed health programs. Creation and funding of this grant program reflects the commitment of the District to carry out its mission of funding health programs for people within the District. This is a new grant program offering funding intended to affect the health of people living in the communities of Concord, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Pacheco and portions of Lafayette.
The Mt. Diablo Health Care District is committed to Harvesting valuable community resources to educate and provide needed health programs to members of the District.
We have successfully trained over 9,000 High School Freshmen in CPR and installed working AEDs in parks throughout the MDHCD District as well as every Middle School and High School in the Mt. Diablo Unified School District.
The Mt. Diablo Health Care District is dedicated to improving the health of people and communities within the Health Care District by funding needed health programs, engaging in health collaborations, and promoting and advocating for needed changes in health policies.

CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
At the February board meeting, the Mt. Diablo Health Care District adopted an annual granting program. This is an exciting change that will allow our healthcare partners to better budget, and ultimately deliver services to our community.
You can download a copy of the program here, including requirements of grant requests and important deadlines.
All requests will be reviewed by the Community Outreach Committee and the final grant decisions will be made by the board in April 2012.
Special congratulations go to RotaCare Bay Area, who raised in excess of $58,000 in response to our $50,000 challenge grant! This exceptional community response to this great program serves as a testament to the work they are doing to keep our community healthy!
