Program Description and Accomplishments
The Delta Health Initiative is a subcomponent of ORHP.
The purpose of this grant is to meet health care needs
in the rural Delta region of the State of Mississippi

care professionals, implementation of electronic health
records and the construction of healthcare facilities.
The program awarded a single grant in FY 2006. Another
award was made in FY 2008.
Funding includes costs associated with grant reviews,
processing of grants through the Grants Administration
Tracking and Evaluation System (GATES) and HRSA’s

needs in this region can best be met by other existing
programs, such as the Health Center program which
can better address the health system delivery problems
of the Delta.
