Medical First Responder (MFR) Grant | Government of Alberta

January 1, 1900

Value

A total of $800,000 in funding is available. A maximum of 16 grants of up to $50,000 are available to communities.

Description

The Medical First Responder (MFR) Grant will provide one-time funding to develop new MFR capacity – in other words, new MFR programs – in rural and remote communities, as well as First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities.

This grant aims to strengthen the EMS system and improve its overall system capacity and sustainability.

Staff wages, renovations, vehicles or infrastructure and administration fees are not supported by the grant.
