Improving immunisation rates for vulnerable populations

EOI-2526-01 

Applications close 25 May 2026

Background

COORDINARE is inviting Expressions of Interest (EOI) from primary care practices and other healthcare providers who support highly vulnerable and hard-to-reach populations.

This includes people who may struggle to access regular healthcare due to factors such as domestic and family violence, financial hardship, cultural or language barriers, Medicare ineligibility, disability, or living in rural or remote areas.

Funding is available to support initiatives that improve access to vaccination, with a particular focus on childhood immunisations and COVID-19 vaccines.

Funding

This activity is supported by funding from COORDINARE – South Eastern NSW PHN through the Australian Government’s PHN Program.

A total of up to $30,000 (ex GST) will be dispersed through this initiative to six applicants, receiving a maximum of $5,000 per grant (ex GST).  Projects supported under this initiative will run for a duration of 6 months, commencing from June 2026 and concluding in December 2026.
