Women+ for Western Health $50,000 Grant

Applications are now closed.

This initiative provides $50,000 to support a staff-led project aligned with Western Health’s Strategic Directions. Particular consideration will be given to projects that reduce barriers and improve health access and outcomes for all patients.

This is an extraordinary opportunity for staff, with last year’s winners proving the success of the program. Alex Potter (they/them) and Jan Kilicaslan (she/her) laid out a road map for how Western Health can create safe and affirming spaces for our LGBTQIA+ Communities.

Open to all Western Health staff, shortlisted applicants will also receive external coaching on how to prepare their project for presentation at Pitch Night, 12 September 2024, where the winning project will be selected by vote.

  • Applications Close: 27 June 2024
  • Finalists Notified: 16 July 2024
