Opportunity Summary:

The 2009 Announcement of Availability of Funds for the Family Planning Male Training Cooperative Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPT 09 015) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It is tied to CFDA 93.260 (Family Planning Personnel Training) and is designed to strengthen the capacity of Title X family planning programs by improving how services and education are delivered to male clients across the United States.

The core purpose of the opportunity is to fund the establishment and operation of a dedicated training center that focuses specifically on family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) information, education, communication, and clinical services for males. In practical terms, the funded organization would be responsible for developing and providing training that helps Title X-funded agencies deliver higher-quality, more effective male-centered services. The emphasis is not simply on general family planning training, but on training that is tailored to the needs of males as clients, including how programs communicate with them, educate them, and provide clinical services that are appropriate, accessible, and high quality.

The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, not a standard grant. That distinction matters because it signals that the federal awarding agency expects to be substantially involved during the project period. Rather than operating fully independently, the recipient should anticipate ongoing programmatic collaboration with HHS, including federal participation in aspects of managing or guiding the work. This typically implies a more hands-on relationship, with coordination, technical input, and shared responsibility for ensuring the training center meets national Title X-related needs.

Funding is expected to support one award, with an anticipated total amount between $400,000 and $500,000 (award floor $400,000; award ceiling $500,000). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated in the opportunity details, meaning applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award (though the full announcement would govern any budget rules or expectations).

Eligibility is broadly described as public and nonprofit private entities, with the listing showing "Others" and directing applicants to the full announcement for clarification. In other words, the opportunity is not limited to a narrow applicant type in the brief synopsis, but applicants would need to confirm their eligibility by reviewing the complete funding announcement and any additional eligibility language contained there.

The timeline provided indicates the opportunity was posted on June 1, 2009, with an application closing date of July 17, 2009. The archive date is August 16, 2009. Applicants were instructed to follow the full announcement for the specific submission requirements, including exact dates and times, which is typical for federal opportunities where technical submission rules and deadlines can be strict.

For applicants needing help accessing the announcement or navigating electronic submission, the contact listed is the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), with operating hours Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. This indicates that applications were expected to be managed through the Grants.gov system, and technical support was centralized there.

Overall, the opportunity funds a national training capacity focused on improving male-focused family planning and reproductive health education and clinical practice within Title X service sites. The government intended to invest in one training center that could build skills, improve service quality, and strengthen how Title X agencies reach and serve male clients through better communication, education, and clinical care practices, with close collaboration between the awardee and HHS throughout the project.
