Opportunity Summary:
The Evidence Based Prevention Program - Existing Projects (with a September 1, 2009 start date) was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration on Aging (AoA). It was published as Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2009-AOA-CONT-BP3 under the broad activity area of Income Security and Social Services. The purpose of this announcement was not to launch a new round of competitive funding for new organizations, but to continue support for an existing, already-funded prevention program project that AoA had in place.
This opportunity used a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. That means it was structured as a partnership-style award rather than a standard grant, with the expectation of substantial federal involvement during the project period. In practice, cooperative agreements typically involve more ongoing coordination with the federal agency around implementation, reporting, and program direction than a traditional grant would.
Funding for this continuation was significant but narrow in scope. AoA anticipated making only one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,300,000. The award amount was expected to fall between an $800,000 floor and a $1,300,000 ceiling, indicating that the final award size would depend on the approved continuation application and program needs within that range. The program was tied to CFDA 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging - Title IV and Title IID Discretionary Projects, which generally supports aging-related initiatives, including prevention and evidence-based approaches that help older adults maintain health and independence.
A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, meaning the recipient was expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the project costs in accordance with the terms described in the full announcement. While the summary data does not specify the match percentage or allowable sources, the presence of a match requirement signals that the project was intended to leverage federal dollars with additional support from the grantee or partners.
Eligibility was restricted. Applicants had to be an existing grantee of the project, which effectively limited competition to a current AoA-funded project recipient seeking continued funding. The eligibility category in the listing is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the clarifying eligibility note makes it clear this was a continuation opportunity rather than an open solicitation.
Key dates were as follows: the opportunity was posted on December 18, 2008 (created December 22, 2008), and it closed on June 30, 2009, with no difference between the original and current closing dates. The archive date was July 30, 2009, meaning after that point it was treated as a historical listing rather than an active funding opportunity. The intended start date for the continued project period was September 1, 2009.
For help accessing the full announcement or addressing technical issues, the listed grants management contact was Alexis Lynady, Grants Management Specialist at AoA, reachable by phone at 202-357-3465 or by email at alexis.lynady@aoa.gov.
