Community Health Center Grants

The Wisconsin Primary Care Program also manages state grants to federally-funded community health centers and healthcare for the homeless centers.  To be eligible for the state grants, these community-governed clinics must be located in a designated Medically Underserved Area/Population (MUA/MUP) and must already receive a federal grant through the HRSA Community Health Centers program (exit DHS)

The federally-funded community health centers and healthcare for the homeless centers are located throughout the state and provide access to comprehensive primary care, dental care and mental health services to low-income, uninsured, and homeless populations in their rural or inner-city communities that have shortages of health professionals.  More information on the community health and healthcare for the homeless centers is available through:

HRSA Bureau of Primary Health Care (exit DHS)

Wisconsin Primary Health Care Association (exit DHS)

Questions about these state grants should be directed to:
