Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Evidence Based Prevention Program - Existing projects - JUNE 1, 2009 Start Date," is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration on Aging (AoA). It is specifically described as a continuation of an existing project rather than a competition meant to bring in brand-new programs. The intent is to provide ongoing support to current Evidence Based Prevention Program grantees whose approved project budget period begins on June 1, 2009, so they can continue delivering or expanding evidence-based prevention services for older adults under AoA oversight.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds. In practice, that typically includes closer coordination with AoA, adherence to program guidance, and more frequent communication, reporting, and technical assistance activities than a standard grant might require. The funding activity category is listed under "Income Security and Social Services," aligning the program with broader efforts to improve stability, well-being, and preventive supports for aging populations. The CFDA listing is 93.048, "Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title IID, Discretionary Projects," indicating it falls under AoA's discretionary aging-services authority.
AoA anticipated making about eight awards under this opportunity. Individual awards were expected to fall within a defined range, with an award floor of $150,000 and an award ceiling of $250,000. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning recipients would need to contribute a non-federal share according to the terms laid out in the full announcement or in the existing grant conditions. Because it is a continuation opportunity, the matching requirement and allowable sources or methods for documenting match would typically be tied closely to the grantee's existing project framework and applicable federal rules.
Eligibility is narrowly limited. Applicants must already be grantees in the Evidence Based Prevention Program and must have a project budget start date of June 1 (consistent with the opportunity's stated start date of June 1, 2009). The eligibility category is presented as "Others," with clarification referenced in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section, but the key qualifier provided here is that only current Evidence Based Prevention Program grantees with the specified budget period timing may apply. This restriction reinforces that the program is not open to new organizations that do not already hold an Evidence Based Prevention Program award.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on December 15, 2008, with an original closing date of March 29, 2009, later extended by one day to March 30, 2009. The archive date is April 28, 2009, meaning the solicitation was no longer active after that point. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2009-AOA-CONT-BP, which identifies it as an HHS AoA continuation opportunity for the Evidence Based Prevention Program.
For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Alexis Lynady, Grants Management Specialist at AoA, reachable by phone at (202) 357-3465 or by email at alexis.lynady@aoa.gov.
