Through its Building Healthy Communities (BHC) strategic initiative, The California Endowment (TCE) is investing in 14 communities (including Boyle Heights) to build healthy and safe environments where people live, attend school, work and play.  

The BHC -Boyle Heights Small Grant Fund provides funding to support projects that improve youth and adult leadership, community engagement, and behaviors related to developing healthy and safe communities.    Through this funding, local residents will have opportunities to acquire new skills and participate in a variety of health promoting events and activities.
