Request for Grant Application Hospital Based Violence Intervention HB4045

The Oregon Health Authority is issuing a Request for Grant Application (S-44300-00018213) to support the planning and development of Hospital-based Violence Intervention Programs (HVIPs) in Oregon counties outside of Multnomah County. This initiative provides seed grants to establish partnerships between community-based organizations and health systems that provide emergency or urgent care services. The primary goal is to create a learning community committed to exploring the HVIP model, utilizing trusted Peer Messengers, and certifying violence prevention professionals to address the emotional and social trauma of community violence. Applicants may apply for up to 100,000 dollars to fund staffing, planning, provider training, and capacity building. The grant cycle begins December 1, 2026, and expires on June 30, 2027, with a mandatory requirement for recipients to participate in monthly HVIP Expansion Learning Communities from December 2026 through June 2027. Applications must be submitted via the OregonBuys portal by November 6, 2026, and must include a completed application form, budget worksheet, and applicant certification. Awards will be based on the quality of the work plan, budget alignment, the acuity of the populations served, and the geographic and language access reach of the proposed project.
