Opportunity Summary:
The ARRA Equipment to Enhance Training for Health Professionals Nursing Workforce Diversity opportunity (HRSA-10-167) was a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) grant funded under the Recovery Act to help eligible organizations buy equipment that strengthens health professions training, specifically in ways that support the Nursing Workforce Diversity (NWD) program. It sits within a larger Equipment to Enhance Training for Health Professionals (EETHP) Equipment Initiative that covered 21 separate health professional training programs authorized under Titles III, VII, and VIII of the Public Health Service Act. Even though the EETHP initiative had shared goals across all participating programs, HRSA issued separate funding announcements for each of the 21 program areas so that applicants would meet the specific statutory and programmatic requirements tied to the particular training program they were applying under. In this case, the focus was nursing workforce diversity, so the equipment being proposed needed to clearly advance NWD-related training activities and goals.
The practical purpose of this grant was straightforward: provide one-time support for purchasing health professions training equipment, with the expectation that the equipment would enhance the quality, capacity, or effectiveness of training efforts connected to nursing workforce diversity. Importantly, an applicant did not have to already be an NWD grantee to apply under this equipment opportunity, but they did have to be eligible to apply for the NWD grant program itself. In other words, eligibility followed the underlying NWD program rules, and the equipment request had to make sense as a tool for meeting NWD objectives rather than a general-purpose purchase unrelated to diversity-focused training outcomes.
Funding details show a relatively large national pool and many awards. HRSA anticipated making about 200 awards from an estimated total of $50,000,000. Individual award amounts ranged from a floor of $5,000 up to a ceiling of $300,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which typically lowers the barrier to participation for schools and community-based organizations that may not have the budget flexibility to provide a match. The opportunity was posted February 26, 2010, with a closing date of March 26, 2010, and it was later archived May 25, 2010.
Eligible applicants were broad but centered on entities involved in nursing education, training, and community health efforts. HRSA listed accredited schools of nursing, nursing centers, academic health centers, state or local governments, faith-based and community-based organizations, tribes and tribal organizations, and other public or private entities the Secretary determined appropriate. A key condition was accreditation: any nursing programs associated with the proposed project had to be accredited for nursing education by a national nurse education accrediting agency or a state approval agency recognized by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education. This requirement was meant to ensure that federal dollars supported equipment used in legitimate, recognized training programs that meet established education standards.
Operationally, this was categorized as a grant under an “Other†opportunity category, with the activity category labeled as Recovery Act. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to HRSA’s call center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV, and phone support via 877-464-4772, with an additional number listed as 301-998-7373).
