Opportunity Summary:

The 2012 Title X Family Planning Training and Technical Assistance Cooperative Agreement FOA, Part A 3 (Family Planning Service Delivery), is a federal discretionary funding opportunity administered by the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The program is designed to strengthen how Title X-funded family planning projects deliver services by funding specialized centers that can provide structured training and hands-on technical assistance. The overall intent is performance improvement across the Title X network, meaning awardees are expected to help clinics and service sites implement best practices, improve operational effectiveness, and raise the quality and consistency of family planning service delivery aligned with Title X requirements.

Funding available under this announcement totals about $3.8 million for Fiscal Year 2012, inclusive of indirect costs, and OPA anticipated making four cooperative agreement awards. The cooperative agreement mechanism is significant because it typically implies substantial federal involvement during the project period, such as collaboration with OPA on priorities, deliverables, and coordination across the Title X system. While an individual award could be up to $1,000,000 (the stated ceiling), the final award amounts would depend on the approved scope of work and federal funding decisions. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible nonprofit and public entities to participate.

The core activity supported by this opportunity is the establishment or operation of Family Planning Training and Technical Assistance Centers (FPTTACs) focused on the priority area identified as “Family Planning Service Delivery” under Part A. In practical terms, awardees would be expected to design and deliver training for Title X service providers and administrators, and provide targeted technical assistance to help sites address real-world service delivery challenges. This may involve developing learning resources, conducting workshops or webinars, offering consultation to improve clinical and administrative workflows, and supporting quality improvement efforts that enhance client care. The emphasis is not on directly delivering clinical services to patients, but on building capacity across the Title X service network so that funded projects can operate more effectively and consistently.

Eligibility is broad but specific: any public or private nonprofit entity located in any U.S. state, the District of Columbia, or certain U.S. territories and affiliated jurisdictions is eligible, including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, and the Freely Associated States listed in the notice (Republic of Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands). Faith-based organizations are explicitly eligible, as are American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations. Private nonprofit applicants must provide acceptable proof of nonprofit status as described in the funding announcement.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on May 31, 2012, with an application closing date of June 11, 2012, and it was later archived on July 11, 2012. It is associated with CFDA number 93.260 (Family Planning Personnel Training). Applications were submitted through Grants.gov, and applicants who had trouble accessing the announcement were directed to the Grants.gov Contact Center for technical support.

Overall, this FOA funded a small number of organizations to act as national or regional capacity-builders for the Title X program, using training and technical assistance as the primary tools to improve service delivery performance, support compliance and quality expectations, and strengthen the effectiveness of federally funded family planning projects.
