The Hillman Emergent Innovation: Serious Illness and End of Life program will award up to ten grants to support the development of pre-evidence interventions that seek to improve the serious illness and end of life care of marginalized populations. Applications are accepted from institutions and care settings from across the spectrum of care, and from practitioners representing a diverse range of backgrounds.
