About Southwest Washington Regional Health Alliance
Southwest Washington Regional Health Alliance’s largest recent grants show a clear pattern: it uses Medicaid transformation funding to support care coordination, community-based services, and health infrastructure across Southwest Washington. Washington Gorge Action Programs in Bingen received $728,626 in 2024 and $636,416 in 2025 for Medicaid Transformation Project Pathways and Community Impact Project work, while Vancouver Housing Authority received $548,919 in 2025 for Medicaid Transformation Project Pathways. The foundation’s recent awards also include support for Lifeline Connections, Share Inc, YWCA Clark County, and Columbia River Mental Health Services, indicating a consistent emphasis on health-related access points rather than one narrow service line. Its stated commitment is to health equity, with a focus on Clark, Klickitat, and Skamania counties and Tribal and Native communities. The grant record aligns with that framing: the alliance funds organizations working on community health improvement, HRSN navigation, harm reduction, substance use recovery, reentry support, rural health, and community health worker capacity. Several awards are tied to partnership-based projects, including collaborative work with local housing, behavioral health, and county-serving organizations.
What Southwest Washington Regional Health Alliance Funds
Health-related social needs and care coordination are central to the alliance’s giving. It awarded $548,919 to Vancouver Housing Authority for Medicaid Transformation Project Pathways, linking housing systems to health access. A separate $236,000-plus pattern is visible in community-based pathway grants to health and human service organizations such as Lifeline Connections and Share Inc, both tied to Medicaid transformation work. Behavioral health and substance use response is another clear theme. The alliance gave $286,603 to Youth and Family Link in 2025 for Medicaid Transformation MCAW / Comagine, and its active Klickitat County opioid funding supports treatment, prevention, recovery, and harm reduction. It also funded Clark County Latino Youth for Medicaid Transformation and COVID-19 Response, showing overlap between public health and equity-focused service delivery. The funder also backs community resilience and equity infrastructure through partners such as the Community Foundation of Southwest Washington under its Social Justice Resiliency Fund.
