We are pleased to announce that the National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable (NVHR) is offering its third annual round of one-year hepatitis C program booster mini‐grants. These awards are for NVHR member organizations working on hepatitis C education, screening and linkage to care activities. To be eligible, applicants must become non-profit NVHR members no later than Monday, February 26, 2018. Organizations that involve patients as staff or volunteers are especially encouraged to apply.

Seven awards will be given in the amount of $10,000 each. The main purpose of this Request for Proposal is to enhance the capacity of NVHR members to conduct hepatitis C education, testing and linkage to care in their local communities. These grants are intended to identify and bolster best practices in hepatitis C testing/linkage to care and to build community and coalition among organizations and individuals engaged in such efforts.  Mini-grantees will receive access to a broader national context for best practices as well mentorship by NVHR staff and fellow mini-grant recipients.
