Community Impact Investment Fund
About the Community Impact Investment Fund
The $200 million Community Impact Investment (CII) Fund was established by IU Health in 2018. The CII Fund is administered by the IU Health Foundation and supports non-profit organizations to address key social and environmental factors that heavily affect people’s health outcomes. These investments are made in support of IU Health’s goal to make Indiana one of the healthiest states in the nation.
The CII Fund application is open to projects that propose projects to improve public health through projects focused on infrastructure investment, workforce development and education attainment.
The 2024 Community Impact Investment Fund and grant application process announcement can be found here. Additional information about the CII program can be found in the Resources section below.
