The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) is excited to announce a new funding opportunity!
The Perinatal Health Hubs Pilot Program will provide $2.5 million in grants to organizations for a two-year period to expand perinatal health hubs across the state. Perinatal health hubs provide community-based, wraparound supports and services to pregnant and postpartum women and their infants. For the purpose of this funding opportunity, a perinatal health hub is defined as:
- Community-based, located in the area it serves
- Caring for the mother-baby dyad during pregnancy and through at least 1 year postpartum
- Providing multiple services for families (see online application for specific services)
- Focused on reducing maternal and infant morbidities and mortalities
The ultimate goal of this work is to help reduce maternal and infant mortality and morbidity in the Commonwealth.
This program is made possible by Chapter 725 of the 2025 Virginia Acts of Assembly (Budget Bill, Item #277H).
Application Deadline: December 1, 2025 at 5 PM EST. See How To Apply for more information.
