NEW CASTLE – The Delaware Department of Health and Social Services’ Health Fund Advisory Committee (HFAC) announced applications are now available for Fiscal Year 2027 and are due August 31.

The application went live on Monday, June 2, which will still allow applicants to have over two months to complete applications. Committee members will have about five weeks to complete a thorough review before public hearings begin.

Applications should be submitted electronically to James.Berryhill@delaware.gov and cc: Susan.Bailey@delaware.gov. The application should be sent as a PDF with the organization’s name at the beginning of the file name.

The Delaware Health Fund is a special fund comprising all annual payments received pursuant to the Master Settlement Agreement entered into by the State of Delaware and the Participating Tobacco Manufacturers.
