The Toronto Urban Health Fund (TUHF) provides grants to community-based HIV prevention and substance use initiatives. Projects funded through the TUHF complement existing Toronto Public Health programs to provide effective services that focus on HIV, substance use and harm reduction programming to populations and groups that Toronto Public Health cannot access due to linguistic, cultural, and geographic barriers. This report outlines the TUHF’s program criteria and priorities, application review process, and 2024 grant recommendations for Board of Health approval. The 2024 TUHF Review Panel recommend granting $653.4 thousand for seven (7) one-year projects and $1,867.7 thousand for seventeen (17) three-year projects that were approved in 2023. The grants total $2,521.1 thousand for the twenty-four (24) projects and are to be used between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. The 2024 recommended projects focus on HIV prevention through sexual transmission, harm reduction, child and youth resiliency, and Indigenous health promotion.
