Criteria Selecting Proposals
This is a non-competitive grant. All eligible applicants will receive a grant award. There are no merit-based review criteria for evaluating the applications. Each application will be reviewed for completeness and accuracy. Applications lacking any required information will be returned to the applicant for correction and re-submission. Because the LHPG is a non-competitive, formula-based grant program, all eligible applicants will receive a grant award.

Upon final approval by IDPH of the EGrAMS grant application, the applicant will be sent a grant agreement through EGrAMS. Each applicant will be required to print the grant agreement, sign it and return it to IDPH for execution. After execution, a copy of the executed grant agreement will be provided to the applicant.
