State Funds Grant Program

The State Funds Grant Program, administered by the Florida Association of Free and Charitable Clinics, is a crucial initiative supporting healthcare for uninsured residents. With $9.5 million allocated annually by the Florida Legislature, this program enhances the healthcare safety net by providing essential funding to free and charitable clinics. This funding is vital in addressing Florida's high uninsured rate, ensuring that millions of disadvantaged patients receive necessary health services, including dental and behavioral health care.

Empowering Free and Charitable Clinics Across Florida
FAFCC administers the State Funds Grant Program, a vital initiative funded by the State of Florida, Department of Health. This program strengthens Florida’s healthcare safety net by providing financial support to free and charitable clinics that serve uninsured and economically disadvantaged patients.
Each year, the Florida Legislature allocates $9.5 million to support this initiative. An additional $3 million has been secured for the past two years to directly support much-needed dental and behavioral health services.
Why This Matters
Florida has one of the highest uninsured rates in the country, with nearly 2.7 million residents lacking health coverage. The State Funds Grant directly supports clinics that provide essential healthcare services to those most in need, bridging critical gaps in the healthcare system.
