Overview

The TSET Legacy Grant is a one-time, historic funding opportunity designed to address Oklahoma’s leading causes of death—cancer and cardiovascular disease. With an investment of up to $150 million, TSET is funding large-scale, transformational projects that will improve rural health, healthcare access, prevention and data-driven solutions across the state.

The TSET Legacy Grant is more than just funding—it’s an investment in Oklahoma’s future. By supporting projects that tackle the root causes of chronic disease, we are helping to build a healthier, stronger state for generations to come.

This initiative will have broad, lasting impact, particularly in rural and underserved communities, and will help drive data-informed solutions to improve health outcomes statewide.
