Colorado Rural Health Grant Program:
The Colorado Rural Health Program has very specific grants available for RURAL EMS
agencies. Their website can be found at: http://www.coruralhealth.org/crhc/index.html
HRSA/ASPER Program:
The FRETAC was very pleased to receive grant funding from the PH
HRSA program this year. Each of our prehospital agencies received triage
tags, and each county received Triage Training Modules. In addition to
these MCI supples, we received PPE bags from MMRS funding that were
distributed this year.
This year (2010) the FRETAC will receive 10K in funding. The funds will
be put toward an MCI Outreach Program. The program will be specifically
for helping agencies to develop and exercise a Prehospital Agency MCI
Plan Template.
Stay tuned for a class in the spring of 2010 for all prehospital agencies!
| Stay Tuned........ Stay tuned to this web page as we proceed. We'll post new opportunities for funding as it becomes available. We have a lot of interesting possibilities right now, and are working with other partners such as the HRSA grant(CDC) and Homeland Security people to develop and coordinate our funding efforts. |
FRETAC Mini Grants
Description and Purpose:
Six years ago, the FRETAC Council started putting money "away" to start a grant
process within our five county region. The FRETAC grant process is divided into two
divisions. These are the "County Subsidy Grants" and the "EMS Agency Grants."
FRETAC County Subsidy Grant:
Each year a letter is sent to each set of our county commissioners. The letter states
that $5,000 is available to them for "Basic EMS Needs". After they send back the
attestation form included in the letter, a check is sent to the county. It is up to each
set of commissioners as to how the funds are spent and who will decide where the
funds go.
FRETAC Competitive Mini-Grants:
This year the FRETAC board had a new focus for our Mini-Grants.
The grants focused on the RETAC's current Goals and Objectives. These goals can be
found in our Biennial Plan. Our current plan has 5 goals for the next two years. Three of
the five goals are related to MCI. If interested, follow the links below for specific info.
