The Health Foundation for Western and Central New York has tagged four organizations in Central New York and the Mohawk Valley for $50,000 grants, it said today.
The grants are designated for projects attempting to connect women to health care, boost existing health-care services, and plug service gaps in what the foundation calls “hot spot” neighborhoods. It defines “hot spot” neighborhoods as areas with elevated rates of high-risk pregnancies, low birth weights, and infant deaths.
Organizations tabbed for the grants are the Center for Court Innovation in Syracuse, the Family Nurturing Center in Utica, Herkimer County Public Health Nursing Services, and Rome Memorial Hospital.
