FHC Role

The Advanced Regenerative Medicine Institute (“ARMI”) was awarded a $44M grant by the EDA to develop “ReGen Valley” in the lower Merrimack Valley region as an economic hub for this emerging field. The Foundation for Healthy Communities was named as a partner in this award, leading a project titled “Strengthening Demand Generation and Clinical Readiness” to drive provider engagement and educational opportunities to equip New Hampshire’s healthcare providers to deliver these new treatment opportunities to their patients. FHC is helping provide access to novel, innovative and potentially curative treatments for New Hampshire residents with chronic illnesses.
