Through health education and development, Johnson & Johnson aims to build skills and health literacy among a broad range of people serving community health needs, ultimately increasing community support, involvement and leadership in the public health arena. In keeping with this strategy, Johnson & Johnson (J&J) working in conjunction with the Society for the Arts in Healthcare, seeks to promote the use of the arts to enhance the healthcare experience for patients, their families and caregivers.
Proposals are being sought from healthcare and/or arts organizations who have established arts in healthcare programs with evidence of initial impact. Grants, each averaging a total of $75,000 over three years, are designed to assist organizations in strengthening program evaluation, replicating programs and disseminating program information nationally and/or internationally.
