Since 2015, Matt has served as the Director of the Strategic Initiatives and Planning Division (SIPD) within the BPHC’s Office of Policy and Program Development.

Additionally, SIPD also supports the maintenance of the Health Center Program grant funding operations, and provides programmatic development and oversight for the over $3.5 billion in capital grant funding provided since 2009, and the nearly $900 million in recently provided loan guarantee authority to support health center infrastructure projects.
