Community Pediatrics Advisory Council (CPAC) Grants Program
The Pediatric Links with the Community (PLC) Program, established in 1996, has been successful in nurturing productive, collaborative relationships between pediatric residents and community organizations in child health-related initiatives. The Community & Pediatricians: Partners for Children Grants Program is designed to build on this successful model by offering one-year grants to expand and promote collaborative efforts between community-based organizations (CBOs) and pediatricians in projects that benefit children. Grant applications should demonstrate a collaborative venture between a CBO and a pediatrician or group of pediatricians and specifically target children or adolescents in need. Funding will be provided for pilot programs, expansion of existing programs, or adaptations of programs from other areas.
