Opportunity Summary:
The 2009 FPH Region 2 (Virgin Islands) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 09 002) is a discretionary federal grant under CFDA 93.217, Family Planning Services. It was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health to fund the establishment and operation of voluntary Title X family planning projects in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The central purpose is to ensure that people who want family planning services can access them, while giving priority to individuals and families with low incomes, consistent with the Title X program's longstanding focus on improving access to preventive reproductive health care for underserved communities.
Under this opportunity, funded projects are expected to provide a broad package of family planning-related care and support. This includes clinical family planning services as well as related preventive health services, along with information, education, and counseling connected to family planning decisions. The announcement also emphasizes referral services "as indicated," meaning applicants should be prepared to connect clients to additional medical or supportive services when needs fall outside what the project directly provides. In practical terms, the program is designed to support patient-centered, voluntary services that help people prevent unintended pregnancy, plan and space pregnancies, and obtain preventive care and guidance tied to reproductive health.
Applicants are instructed to build their proposals around the Title X statutory requirements and the program's regulatory and policy framework. That includes the Title X legislation itself, applicable federal regulations, and the program guidelines, as well as any legislative mandates, program priorities, and other key issues highlighted in the full funding announcement and application kit. The intent is that applications not only describe services, staffing, and operations, but also show how the project will comply with Title X requirements and deliver services in a manner consistent with federal expectations for quality, access, and accountability.
Eligibility is broad but limited to public entities and private nonprofit organizations. Any public or nonprofit private entity located in a U.S. state or territory (explicitly including the U.S. Virgin Islands and other listed jurisdictions such as Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, and several freely associated states) may apply. Faith-based organizations are eligible, as are American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations. Private nonprofit applicants must provide acceptable documentation proving nonprofit status, as referenced in the announcement's application instructions.
Funding for this specific competition is presented as a single fixed amount: both the award ceiling and award floor are listed as 853,000 dollars, indicating the anticipated award level for the project under this notice. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant, though they would still be expected to develop a sound budget and justify costs in line with federal grant rules.
Key dates included in the notice show the opportunity was posted on March 9, 2009, with an application closing date of June 1, 2009, and an archive date of July 1, 2009. The announcement notes that applicants should rely on the full grant notice for precise submission requirements and any time-of-day deadlines, which is important because federal grant systems often enforce strict cutoff times and formatting rules.
For access and submission support, the notice points applicants to the full announcement link for detailed guidance and indicates that anyone who cannot access the announcement electronically should contact the Grants.gov Help Desk at Support@grant.gov. This suggests the expected submission pathway was through Grants.gov, with the full funding package providing the detailed program requirements, application forms, and compliance expectations needed to submit a complete Title X family planning services proposal.
