The Healthy Americas Foundation (HAF) supports the science base by increasing the number of researchers who as a means of achieving the best health for all examine the health and well-being of Hispanics. As a result, HAF seeks funding to support researchers.
​
The goal of the Healthy Americas Research Consortium (HARC) is to build a science base that reflects all in order to advance discovery and precision medicine tailored to the needs of individuals.
​
In 2022-2023 HARC supported 10 teams of researchers conducting research on cervical cancer; experiences with accessing Pap and HPV screening; and, effective approaches to increasing Pap and HPV screening. In February of 2024, HAF announced a new round of funding to support up to 10 research teams conducting research about chronic diseases and in December 2024 grants were awarded to 13 teams of researchers focused on chronic diseases and the role of contributory causes, Each research team received $10,000 to support their research project. All projects were based on data in whole or in part from the National Institutes of Health’s All of Us Researcher Workbench, a major national source of data on health and well-being.
​
NEW FUNDING OPPORTUNITY:
HAF is proud to announce a new round of funding for up to 20 research teams conducting research about chronic diseases in communities for which there are limited scientific research efforts.
​
Research proposals should expand our understanding of chronic diseases in communities by examining the role of contributory causes, including biological, behavioral, social, and/or environmental factors; health care access; and/or the intersection of mental health and chronic disease. Each team will receive an award of $10,000 to support their research project and support from the Healthy Americas Research Consortium network of scholars.
