Generation Rx Requests for Proposals

Responding to the opioid epidemic

APPLICATIONS DUE JANUARY 12, 2018

We are pleased to announce three new Generation Rx requests for proposals, targeting four of the states that have been especially hard hit by the opioid epidemic. Please find brief details, downloadable RFPs, budget template and FAQs below. We invite you to review each of these grant opportunities, and apply for one or more to address the needs in your community.

Prevention Education for Youth

Grants will be available to organizations in Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and West Virginia. We anticipate funding 30-50 programs at $25,000-$35,000 each.

We are committed to educating youth about medication safety and preventing prescription drug misuse. Our goal for this grant funding is to help communities prevent prescription drug misuse through education.

Best Practices in Pain Medication Use and Patient Engagement:

Grants will be available to organizations in Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and West Virginia. We anticipate funding 20-30 programs at $25,000-$50,000 each.

Our goal for this RFP is to engage patients and their healthcare providers in reducing the number of opioids prescribed for pain management, while producing better patient outcomes and better pain management.

Community-Level Response to the Opioid Crisis:

These grants will be available only to communities in Ohio. We anticipate funding 5 communities at $75,000-$100,000 each.

This funding will help grantees to build or expand an existing community collaborative, and support the collaborative as it works on several tactics specifically designed to reduce addictions, overdoses and deaths.

The Cardinal Health Foundation has engaged content specialists to provide technical assistance to grantees and to create learning communities. We also anticipate convening grantees within the next 12 months for further learning.

Proposals must be submitted online by Friday, January 12, 2018. Hard copy or email submissions will NOT be accepted, nor will proposals submitted after the deadline.
