We want to educate, advocate and impact families and communities across the US to both end the pandemic, address health disparities, and shine the light on the importance of good health.

Good Health WINs
2023-2024
Mini-Grant Program
The NorCal Region of the National Council of Negro Women, Inc. (NCNW) is launching a mini-grant program to encourage the NorCal Region Sections to partner with community organizations and/or NCNW Affiliate organizations on vaccine education and promotion projects. All NorCal Sections can apply to receive a mini-grant between $500 – $1,000. Due to limited funds, not all applications submitted will receive funding.
The Goal
The mini-grants will support NCNW’s goal to create a network of regional and local partners who will raise awareness on immunization for vaccination preventable diseases (i.e., COVID, shingles, influenza pneumonia, MMR, etc.) and contribute to the evidence-based effective interventions to improve vaccine coverage.
During this grant year, the NorCal Scope of Work and mini-grant focus is…
- Launch campaigns to address barriers, myths and hesitancy to COVID and Flu prevention and treatment.
- Increase vaccine confidence and acceptance while reinforcing prevention measures such as mask wearing, social distancing and hand washing.
- Provide the public with factual medical and government information about COVID, Flu and other vaccine preventable diseases.
- Expand the number of vaccinated individuals and encouraging others to receive vaccinations for COVID, the Flu and other vaccine preventable diseases.
This Grant has been dispersed. We are in the process of developing more grant through the GHWs Program. Please check back in the Fall for more information.
