About California Health Collaborative
California Health Collaborative’s recent grantmaking is shaped by public health work in California, with large awards tied to community activities, tobacco control implementation, ACEs response, and tobacco-free outdoor spaces. The foundation describes its mission as changing lives by improving health and wellness, and its active programs point to a mix of direct service, capacity building, policy support, and community engagement. A major 2023 grant went to the Universiry of Southern CA in Los Angeles for community activities, while another substantial award supported African American Family & Cul in Oroville to lead CTCP grant work. Those grants sit alongside additional funding for local organizations in Hanford, Visalia, Barstow, and Skyforest, showing a pattern of California-based public health grants that touch both program delivery and local systems change. Its program portfolio includes the Latino Coordinating Center for a Tobacco-Free California and Youth Making Change Against Tobacco, which connects the foundation to tobacco prevention and youth advocacy. The presence of an internal DEI Council also signals attention to organizational practice as part of its funding and program model.
What California Health Collaborative Funds
Tobacco control is one of the clearest threads in California Health Collaborative’s portfolio. The foundation gave $122,252 to African American Family & Cul in Oroville to lead CTCP grant work, and it also funded tobacco-free outdoor spaces through awards to Barstow Youth Activity Center and Rim Family Services Inc. ACEs response is another defined area. In 2023, Adventist Health Reedley in Hanford received $26,225 to effectively respond to ACEs, and Family Healthcare Network in Visalia received $23,324 for the same purpose. That pairing suggests support for similar public health approaches across more than one local partner. Youth and community engagement also appear in the grant record and active programs. The foundation’s Youth Making Change Against Tobacco program in Fresno County is designed to train youth in policy, systems, and environmental change, while its Latino Coordinating Center for a Tobacco-Free California focuses on tailored assistance for Latino communities across the state.
How California Health Collaborative Gives
The typical grant size sits around the mid-$20,000s: p25 is $20,831, median is $24,774, and p75 is $98,245. The 2023 grant list also shows a wide spread, from smaller local awards to a single six-figure grant. The pattern looks more like ongoing program funding than one-off checks. Several active programs are built for implementation over time, and the recent grants align with those program areas. California Health Collaborative is a public charity, does not fund individuals, and does not make program-related investments. It also accepts unsolicited applications for at least some of its active programs.
