Opportunity Summary:
The 2009 HIV Prevention for Female Adolescents/Youths at Greater Risk for Juvenile Delinquency grant (Funding Opportunity Number WH-MPP-09-001) is a discretionary federal grant in the health category administered under the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, through the Office on Womens Health (OWH). Authorized by 42 U.S.C. 300u-2(a), it funds organizations to create and run a new, evaluation-intensive prevention program that addresses the overlap between juvenile delinquency risk and sexually transmitted disease (STD) and HIV risk among female adolescents. In the announcement, the target population is referred to as girls, specifically ages 9 to 17, who are identified as being at risk for juvenile delinquency.
At its core, the program is meant to increase HIV and STD prevention knowledge and lower the likelihood of HIV/STD acquisition for these girls by using multi-level interventions. The emphasis is not only on basic sexual health education, but on the real-world link between sexually risky behaviors and behaviors associated with delinquency. In practice, applicants are expected to design programming that recognizes how vulnerabilities such as unstable housing, placement in foster care or group homes, contact with juvenile justice systems, or other challenging circumstances can intersect with sexual decision-making, safety, and access to prevention resources.
Funded projects are required to implement both group-level and community-level interventions. The group-level requirement is a direct demonstration of an HIV/STD prevention education intervention specifically for at-risk girls. This implies structured educational sessions or curricula delivered to participants in a group setting, with a focus on practical, realistic prevention education. Alongside that direct service component, grantees must also carry out community-level interventions. These include community awareness activities and events aimed at the local youth community to raise visibility and understanding of HIV/STD prevention and the risk factors tied to delinquency. In addition, grantees must provide capacity building and technical assistance to service providers who work with girls in vulnerable situations and to parents or guardians of at-risk girls. The announcement gives examples of relevant service settings, such as foster homes, pregnant teen homes, juvenile group homes, detention facilities, urban Boys and Girls Clubs, urban Girl Scouts, and local Offices on Youth, signaling that the program expects applicants to engage systems and organizations that regularly interact with high-risk youth.
A major feature of this opportunity is its strong evaluation focus and its intent to build longer-term community capacity. The grant is described as evaluation intensive, meaning recipients are expected to collect data and assess whether the interventions are improving knowledge and reducing risk, while also strengthening local infrastructure so communities are better equipped to serve at-risk girls beyond the grant period. In other words, the grant is not just about delivering sessions to participants; it is also about improving local competence, coordination, and prevention readiness among the providers and caregivers who surround these youth.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity anticipated 10 awards, with an award floor and ceiling both listed at $130,000, indicating a fixed award amount per recipient. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number associated with the program is 93.015 (HIV Prevention Programs for Women). The opportunity was posted June 29, 2009, with an application closing date of July 27, 2009, and it was archived August 26, 2009. Eligibility is broadly indicated as "Others" with further clarification referenced in the full announcement, and the notice itself states no additional eligibility information in the summary field, directing applicants to consult the complete announcement for details.
For applicants needing access help, the listing points to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, weekdays 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern) and support@grants.gov. Overall, the grant supports community-based, multi-level HIV/STD prevention efforts tailored to girls ages 9 to 17 who are at heightened risk of juvenile delinquency, combining direct education with broader community engagement and provider/caregiver capacity building, all backed by rigorous evaluation expectations.
