Awards ranged from $2,500 to $175,000 per outcome, with an average award of $31,553 per outcome. Because agencies can apply once under each strategy, an agency can be awarded a grant to work towards more than one outcome. Per agency, awards ranged from $4,000 to $320,000, with an average award of $57,538 per agency. Here is how this broke down by focus area and strategy:

NOTE: The strategies that agencies can apply under are slightly different in the FY24 investment cycle compared to the FY22-FY23 investment cycles. In the FY24 investment cycle, there are two Health strategies instead of three (HE 1: Health Promotion and HE 2: Behavioral and Mental Health). In FY24, HE 1 and HE 3 are combined into a single strategy, HE 1: Health Promotion.

Applying for an upcoming investment cycle within these ranges does not guarantee a grant award. This information is only provided to help inform you about past funding decisions, which have no influence on future funding decisions.
