Grant Coordinator

Description

CSpring partners with government and healthcare organizations to solve complex problems through data, technology, and people. As a Regional Grant Coordinator supporting Indiana’s GROW Regional Grant Program, you will help turn a historic investment in rural health into coordinated, accountable action across multiple regions, strengthening healthcare access, prevention, and long-term system resilience.

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Your work will have a direct connection to rural communities across Indiana. GROW represents approximately $600 million in multi-year investment across 64 fully rural counties and nine partially rural counties, giving you the opportunity to support work with meaningful, statewide reach.
• You will help local priorities move from plans to implementation. Each region has developed a unified strategy based on local needs, community priorities, and IDOH data, and you will help regional partners keep those strategies moving forward.
• You will work across healthcare, public health, and community organizations. You will collaborate with hospitals, clinics, EMS providers, community organizations, Technical Assistance Providers, and state partners while helping everyone work from clear and consistent expectations.
• You will have independence while staying connected to a larger team. This is a remote, field-based contract role supporting multiple regions, with close connection to CSpring, IDOH, regional coalitions, the Regional Committee and Media Liaison, and statewide Technical Assistance Providers.
• You will help build systems that last beyond individual projects. From reporting practices to grants-management tools and shared templates, your work will strengthen how regional partners manage funding, measure results, and sustain rural health improvements over time.

What You'll Do

You will serve as an operational link between IDOH and regional partners, helping multiple regions manage grants effectively, meet state and federal expectations, and maintain progress toward GROW goals.

• Serve as a supportive regional contract manager for organizations receiving Rural Health Transformation Program funding, helping partners understand and meet grant and contract requirements.
• Monitor compliance with state and federal requirements, including allowable expenditures, budget adherence, documentation standards, milestones, deliverables, and timelines.
• Maintain audit-ready grant documentation and support consistent use of state-approved templates, tools, reporting systems, and grants-management practices.
• Identify performance risks, compliance concerns, budget issues, or implementation barriers early and escalate issues to IDOH when appropriate.
• Collaborate closely with statewide Technical Assistance Providers-IHA, IPHCA, and IRHA-to provide coordinated and consistent support to regional coalitions.
• Participate in regional consortium meetings, workgroups, and planning sessions, and serve as a convener for Regional Committee meetings.
• Coordinate regional data collection, performance tracking, outcome measurement, and reporting in alignment with CMS Rural Health Transformation Program requirements.
• Help regional partners understand CMS documentation, metric, narrative, and reporting expectations, and support corrective action planning when progress falls behind expectations.
• Serve as a day-to-day liaison among IDOH, regional coalitions, hospitals, clinics, EMS providers, community organizations, the Regional Committee and Media Liaison, and other partners.
• Help partners interpret state guidance, solve implementation challenges, share effective practices across regions, and use consistent statewide tools and evaluation approaches.
