Opportunity Summary:
This FY 15 funding opportunity (PA FPH 15 005) is a discretionary federal grant announcement from the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health to support a single Title X family planning services project covering Region 2, which in this case is the entire territory of Puerto Rico. The purpose is to establish and operate voluntary family planning services that are available to anyone who wants them, while giving priority to people from low-income families. The program scope is grounded in Title X law and its implementing requirements, and applicants are expected to design projects that align with the 2014 Title X Program Guidelines, applicable regulations and legislative mandates, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) policy notices, and the specific priorities and key issues laid out in the full announcement and application package.
The services envisioned under the grant include clinical family planning and related preventive health services, as well as education, information, and counseling connected to family planning. The project is also expected to provide referral services when appropriate. While the announcement allows an applicant to propose delivering services through partnerships or by relying on other entities, funding decisions will consider how inclusive and open the applicant is in selecting and working with qualified service providers that are eligible for federal funds. In practical terms, proposals that show they can coordinate a broad, capable network to reach people in need across Puerto Rico, rather than limiting participation without justification, are positioned more favorably under this stated review consideration.
Eligibility is broad but limited to public or private nonprofit entities located in a state or territory as defined by the program, which explicitly includes Puerto Rico and other U.S. jurisdictions and affiliated areas. Importantly, even if a state or territorial government applies, local and regional public or private nonprofit organizations are also allowed to apply directly to the Secretary under Title X. Faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are also eligible to apply, as long as they meet the public or private nonprofit requirement and other applicable program rules.
The award parameters are fixed for this competition: one expected award with an award floor and ceiling both set at $3,249,000, meaning the anticipated award amount is $3,249,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed. The CFDA (now commonly referred to as the Assistance Listing) associated with this opportunity is 93.217, Family Planning Services, and the activity category is Health. The opportunity was posted on September 8, 2014, with an application closing date of April 1, 2015, and it was archived on May 1, 2015.
