COVID-19 Vaccine Outreach Grant Program

The COVID-19 Vaccine Outreach Grant Program launched on Monday.  Childcare providers and schools are eligible  to apply for grants up to $100,000 to do vaccine outreach to hesitant populations.    This could be especially relevant for the educational community once vaccines are authorized for younger kids (5-11 year olds).

The first round of applications is open until November 1, and for schools holding vaccine clinics or doing other outreach around COVID-19 vaccines, this could be an opportunity for some grant money.
