Smaller, nonacademic organizations often lack the experience, time, and resources needed to conduct and implement evaluations that are critical to effective program execution and sustainability.

To address this need among its own grantees, NYHealth began funding, in 2008, a technical assistance initiative that offers additional support in strengthening the evaluation aspects of grantee projects. With funding from NYHealth, the New York University (NYU) School of Medicine has provided direct assistance to selected grantees, held training workshops for grantees, and created an online evaluation toolkit to be used by potential NYHealth applicants and current grantees. Through continued support from NYHealth, the evaluation technical assistance program has built on the successes of previous years. In 2025, NYHealth awarded NYU School of Medicine a grant to continue to provide NYHealth grantees with technical assistance in implementing their evaluation activities.

Under this grant, NYU will continue to provide evaluation technical assistance workshops for grantees that cover a range of topics, including developing a logic model; designing and implementing a process and outcome evaluation; and coding and analyzing qualitative data. NYU will continue to offer workshop content through monthly, interactive webinar learning sessions. Participants will receive evaluation workshop presentations and other resources in an electronic format. NYU will also reach out to new grantees to schedule an initial, one-hour consultation. The evaluation team will provide enhanced technical assistance to grantee organizations over a one-year period and offer customized support, depending on grantee needs. Lastly, NYU will send out periodic reminders to grantees about the availability of technical assistance.

Grant Recipients for “Sponsoring Conference Participation in Support of Healthy Food, Healthy Lives; Primary Care; and Veterans’ Health”

Across New York State, mission-focused organizations—NYHealth grantees and non-grantees— continue to develop smart, innovative, and timely work relevant to the Foundation’s program areas: Healthy Food, Healthy Lives; Primary Care; and Veterans’ Health. These organizations should and could be elevating their work and informing key stakeholders at regional, statewide, and national conferences, meetings, and other convenings, both in person and online. Yet, because of a lack of time and resources, they often are unable to do so. To address this issue and increase opportunities for organizations to showcase their work, NYHealth awards grants through its Sponsoring Conference Participation in Support of Healthy Food, Healthy Lives; Primary Care; and Veterans’ Health Request for Proposals (RFP).

Through this RFP, NYHealth sponsors a range of nonprofits, community-based organizations, health departments, and organizations with limited resources to attend and present at local, State, and national conferences related to the Foundation’s program areas.

Northeast Farmers of Color Land Trust (fiscal sponsor: Resist Inc)

In a state as large as New York, a steady stream of smart, innovative work is coming from NYHealth grantees and non-grantees alike that is relevant to NYHealth’s priority areas of Healthy Food, Healthy Lives and its focus area on Veterans’ Health.

These organizations should be elevating their work and informing key stakeholders at regional, statewide, and national conferences, meetings, and other convenings. Yet, because of a lack of resources, they are often unable to do so. To address this issue, NYHealth is awarding grants through its Sponsoring Conference Participation in Support of Healthy Food, Healthy Lives and Veterans’ Health Request for Proposals (RFP). Through this RFP, NYHealth is sponsoring low-resource organizations to attend and present at local, State, and national conferences related to these areas. In 2023, NYHealth awarded Northeast Farmers of Color Land Trust (fiscal sponsor: Resist Inc) a grant to participate in this initiative as part of its efforts to connect people to healthy food.

Under this grant, Northeast Farms of Color Land Trust sent two staff members to attend the 2023 Northeastern Association of State Departments of Agriculture (NEASDA) Regional Meeting. NEASDA is an association dedicated in influencing policy, comprised of commissioners, secretaries, and directors of agriculture from the northeastern states. Through this conference, NEASDA convened with other leaders in the agricultural sector to determine priority areas for: food safety regulation, marketing, and trade; environmental and conservation practices; animal and plant production; and federal policy in the coming years. By attending the conference, the staff members from the Northeast Farms of Color Land Trust improved their advocacy and policy work; built upon their network with other leaders in the agricultural sector; and garnered support and provided representation for the 600+ BIPOC farmers in New York State. As an organization, it continued to encourage other non-governmental and advocacy organizations to join the conversation to promote equity and sustainability in the food and farm space.
