CF congressionally directed grants

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service awarded a $2,505,000 Project Grant to Clay County Hospital, a U.S. local government entity and hospital located in Louisville, Illinois. The grant, provided under the Community Facilities Loans and Grants program (CFDA 10.766), will fund the construction, enlargement, or improvement of rural healthcare facilities to enhance essential services and infrastructure for the local community. Clay County Hospital has a long history of receiving federal grants to support its mission of improving healthcare access in rural areas, including a $1 million award in January 2023. In addition to this infrastructure project, the hospital has also participated as a sub-grantee in diabetes prevention and management programs, as well as initiatives to support mental health services in local schools, demonstrating its commitment to delivering a range of community health services with the aid of federal funding.
