Opportunity Summary:
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), within the U.S. Department of Transportation, announced a discretionary funding opportunity to support a Demonstration Project on a Senior Pedestrian Safety Training Program. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency expects to be actively involved with the recipient during the project rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. NHTSA anticipated making a single award, with total funding not to exceed $100,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated.
The central goal of the project is to partner with a national organization that already serves older adults and can help deliver, coordinate, and assess a specific training intervention referred to as the WOFU Workshop. The recipient would be responsible for demonstrating and evaluating this workshop in at least fifteen (15) communities across the United States. In practical terms, the project is meant to show how the workshop can be implemented in diverse local settings and to collect information on how well it works, what challenges arise, and what outcomes can be measured when it is delivered at community scale.
NHTSA described two outcome horizons. The immediate outcome is increased, active engagement of community organizations in addressing senior pedestrian crash risk, which implies building local partnerships and mobilizing stakeholders that interact with seniors (for example, senior service providers and other community-based groups). The long-term outcome is broader and more impact-focused: reducing the number of pedestrian crashes involving older people. While the announcement does not lay out the evaluation design in detail in the text provided, it clearly signals that both demonstration (real-world delivery) and evaluation (assessment of effectiveness and implementation) are required components, not optional add-ons.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), with the important practical emphasis that the ideal applicant is a national organization providing services to seniors and capable of operating across multiple communities. The opportunity was posted May 19, 2009, under Funding Opportunity Number DTNH22-09-R-00212, within CFDA 20.614 (NHTSA Discretionary Safety Grants), and categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting the demonstration-and-evaluation nature of the work.
Applications were due by 2:00 PM Eastern on Thursday, June 18, 2009, and had to be submitted as a complete package to NHTSA’s Office of Acquisition Management (NPO 320), attention Larry Gooding, at the U.S. DOT address in Washington, DC. Applicants were instructed to reference the cooperative agreement number DTNH22-09-R-00212 and to include a complete mailing address suitable for Federal Express delivery. Questions had to be submitted by email no later than 3:00 PM Eastern on Thursday, May 21, 2009, to Larry Gooding (larry.gooding@dot.gov), who was also listed as the point of contact for administrative and programmatic inquiries.
