The MA Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs will announce, likely in March 2020, the addition of new funding into the Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Action Grant Program. This new funding will focus on climate change, the healthcare sector, and public health.
Municipalities will be able to apply for Action Grant funding to engage in an additional planning process or implementation focused on community health to supplement their MVP plan. Data from recent community health needs assessments should form the foundation of this planning process.
