We are excited that the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) has expanded the criteria, simplified the initial application, and increased the award to $250,000 in general support funds for the Culture of Health Prize. The RWJF Culture of Health Prize honors the work of communities where people and organizations collaborate to build positive solutions to barriers that have created unequal opportunities for health and well-being.

The Praxis Project believes many of our base building partners have projects that center equity and racial justice that make you competitive and eligible for the prize. We are hosting an informational webinar to provide more details on the application process. The webinar will feature Ana Maria Delarosa from Healthy & Equitable Communities at Health Resources in Action. Ana Maria will review the revamped prize criteria and timeline and answer questions.

What to expect:

• Learn more about the Culture of Health prize and changes to this year’s program

• Review the application process and selection criteria

• Share and get feedback on questions you may have about the application

When: Wednesday, Mar 15, 2023 @ 1pm ET | 12pm CT | 11am MT | 11am PT
