Background

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving grant readiness and aligning projects with our strategic priorities, we are pleased to share the Grant Prioritization System (GPS). This initiative is designed to strengthen our grant management culture by enabling a more proactive, strategic, and equitable approach to identifying and prioritizing funding needs. The GPS establishes a centralized process for documenting potential grant-funded projects in advance of funding announcements. It ensures:

Clear alignment with SPHP’s strategic goals
Thorough documentation of project scope, cost, and sustainability
A streamlined approval process that improves our responsiveness

Form Instruction

Anyone within the organization is encouraged to suggest a project idea. However, only individuals at the Director level or above may formally submit project requests for consideration by the Division Leader. This ensures alignment and prioritization at the appropriate leadership level. Based on the prioritization by your respective Division Leader, the Grants Team will work to identify applicable funding sources. Note: Submission and approval of the project by the Division Leader does not guarantee funding availability. The Grants Team will research and identify appropriate funders and reach out when identified or with any additional questions.
