Responsive Fund

The goal of the Responsive Fund RFP is to address immediate, emerging, or unanticipated needs within the community, recognizing that opportunities to build resilience require dedicated funding. An optional proposal webinar will be held on Tuesday, July 7, from 4-5 p.m. Register here.

Applications are open for two areas of support:

1)      Grant Funding for Critical Services – Sustaining Civic Infrastructure: Total investment up to $1.5 million  

This funding supports the continuity of critical community infrastructure and services by addressing the time-sensitive operational and programmatic needs. Proposals for funding should focus on critical gaps or unmet needs with deep ties to community relationships. Organizations should demonstrate readiness to deploy resources quickly if funding is provided. This RFP will prioritize funding organizations essential to advancing health justice and youth well-being among our priority populations. Grants are available at three levels: $50,000, $75,000, or $100,000 for general operating or programmatic support. Apply through Interact for Health’s Grants Portal by July 31 at 5 pm.

2)      In-Kind Support for Sustainability Consultations and Capacity Building: Total investment up to $300,000

• Scenario planning  
• Legal support 
• Sustainability and development planning and implementation
• Diversified funding strategies and implementation
• Exploring collaboration, partnerships/alliances, shared services, and/or mergers
• Strategic planning and revisions 

Sustainability Consultations will include up to 30 hours of 1:1 support and will begin in late 2026.  Organizations can apply through this form by July 31 at  5 p.m.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions at responsive@interactforhealth.org.

How is this funding different than other funding from Interact for Health?

• This funding is intended to be both responsive to our partners’ needs and aligned with Interact for Health’s mission and priority populations. Applicants should explain how funding would address an unmet need for their organization.

Is this general operating support or project-based support?

• Responsive Fund Grants will be general operating support.

Can organizations apply to multiple areas of support?

• Yes. Organizations may apply for multiple funding areas; however, only one application may be submitted per organization per funding area. Please coordinate funding requests within your organization.

Will Interact for Health continue to offer this support?

• The Responsive Fund RFP is built on previous responsive efforts from Interact for Health, such as Rapid Response Funding, where $1 million was deployed amid Federal funding rollbacks and a $72,000 response to SNAP cuts in 2025. Future needs for responsive funding will be evaluated on an annual basis.
