Opportunity Summary:

The FY10 Adolescent Family Life (AFL) Demonstration Projects funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PA-APH-10-001) is a discretionary federal grant program administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It invites proposals from public and private nonprofit organizations to design, run, and evaluate new and practical service models for pregnant adolescents ages 15 to 18. The central purpose is to strengthen supports around pregnant teens by involving not only the adolescents themselves, but also their families and the fathers of their children and/or male partners, with the broader goal of improving outcomes for both the young mother and her child.

A key eligibility and service rule in this announcement is that only adolescents who are currently pregnant and between 15 and 18 years old may enroll and begin receiving services at program entry. After the baby is born, the program does not stop immediately; services may continue for the adolescent as a parenting teen and for her child until the child reaches one year of age. This structure emphasizes early engagement during pregnancy while still providing continuity of support through the critical first year of the infant’s life.

Programmatically, the grants sit under Title XX requirements, meaning grantees must ensure that certain core services are available either directly or through referrals. What makes these awards “demonstration” projects is that applicants are encouraged to go beyond the baseline core services by adding and testing innovative strategies that strengthen parenting, family functioning, and/or constructive male involvement. In other words, the program is not only paying for service delivery, but also for thoughtful, testable enhancements that could improve standard practice.

Applicants are expected to propose a multi-site intervention design that includes a comparison between two models. One or more sites should provide the standard care services consistent with Title XX. One or more different sites should deliver an enhanced care model that builds on the same core services but adds a targeted component focused on parental involvement, family involvement, or male involvement (such as engaging fathers or male partners). The intent is to produce clearer evidence about whether the enhanced approach leads to better results than standard services alone. Eligible service locations can vary widely and may include schools, community centers, hospitals, clinics, and similar community-based settings, allowing applicants to tailor implementation to where pregnant adolescents are most likely to be reached.

The target population for the care services intervention is explicitly pregnant adolescents ages 15 to 18 and their families, with services designed to promote healthy child development and encourage meaningful involvement from extended family members and from the child’s father and/or the adolescent’s male partner. The overall framing suggests a two-generation focus: supporting the teen’s health, stability, and parenting capacity while also supporting early healthy development for the infant, and doing so in a way that recognizes the influence of family systems and co-parenting relationships.

From a funding perspective, the announcement anticipated making about 10 awards, with an estimated total funding pool of $4,000,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between $400,000 (award floor) and $600,000 (award ceiling). Cost sharing or matching was required, so applicants would need to contribute non-federal resources or documented match consistent with the program’s rules. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number associated with the program is 93.995 (Adolescent Family Life Demonstration Projects).

The opportunity timeline reflects a standard federal competition schedule for that period: it was posted on April 14, 2010, created on April 30, 2010, and had an application deadline (closing date) of June 22, 2010, with an archive date of July 22, 2010.

What does “standard care” mean in this announcement?

Standard care refers to providing services consistent with Title XX core service expectations (delivered directly or through referrals), without the additional targeted enhancements being tested in the enhanced model.

The intent is to generate clearer evidence about whether the enhanced approach produces better results than standard services alone.
