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.
