We are honored to announce the PHPDA Health Equity Fund‘s 2023 Major Grants! More than $3 million will be used to support projects for 18 community partners who are working to improve health care access and outcomes for the communities they serve.
“Every year, PHPDA is proud to announce our New Major Grant awardees, and 2023 is no different.
