Opportunity Summary:

The FY10 Minority Community HIV/AIDS Partnership Preventing Risky Behaviors Among Minority College Students grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number MP HHP 10 001) was a discretionary federal funding announcement focused on reducing HIV/AIDS-related health disparities among young adults, with a clear emphasis on racial and ethnic minority college students. The core idea behind the program was that stronger, well-structured partnerships can measurably improve HIV-related health outcomes by combining the reach and credibility of national minority-serving organizations with the on-the-ground access of community-based healthcare facilities and the direct student connection provided by minority-serving colleges and universities. In practice, the initiative aimed to support projects that prevent risky behaviors linked to HIV transmission and that can demonstrate effectiveness, not just activity.

The program was administered under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services umbrella, with the Office of Minority Health (OMH) referenced in the description and the Agency Name listed as the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. Awards were made through a Cooperative Agreement, meaning recipients would typically carry out their proposed work while also engaging in an ongoing, more hands-on relationship with the federal government compared with a standard grant. The funding activity category was Health, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 93.004 (Cooperative Agreements to Improve the Health Status of Minority Populations).

A major priority of the opportunity was building and testing partnership-driven approaches involving three key players: (1) a national minority-serving organization (as the applicant/lead), (2) community-based healthcare facilities, and (3) minority-serving postsecondary institutions. The announcement specifically highlighted institutions with longstanding records of serving minority populations, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and other accredited minority-serving institutions. The work supported by the program was intended to promote promising practices and model programs in minority communities, suggesting that applicants were expected to implement strategies with evidence or strong rationale behind them and to contribute lessons about what works in real campus and community settings.

Funding levels were relatively focused and competitive. The estimated total funding available was $1,000,000, with an expectation of making about four awards. Individual awards were anticipated to fall between $250,000 (award floor) and $300,000 (award ceiling). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduced financial barriers for eligible applicants and kept the emphasis on program design, partnership strength, and measurable outcomes.

Eligibility was specific and somewhat narrow. The lead applicant needed to be an established, nonprofit national minority-serving organization operating nationally under its charter or bylaws and focused on health and human services, with a demonstrated history of serving racial and ethnic minority populations. Applicants were required to submit bylaws and/or a charter with the application to document their national scope and purpose. In addition, the organization needed at least five years of experience conducting HIV/AIDS programs for minority populations, reinforcing that this funding was meant for organizations with proven subject-matter and community expertise rather than newcomers. Examples of eligible national minority-serving organizations mentioned included organizations representing community health organizations serving minority populations, groups focused on minority health, education, leadership development, and national partnerships, organizations whose membership represents minority-focused health professionals, and national faith-based organizations. The eligibility list also included federally recognized American Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages and Corporations meeting the definition in U.S.C. Section 1603(e), as well as Tribal Organizations such as Intertribal Councils and American Indian Health Boards meeting the definition in 25 USC Section 1603(e).

Key dates show this was a time-limited FY 2010 opportunity. The posting and creation date were July 3, 2010, with an original (and unchanged) application closing date of August 2, 2010. The opportunity was archived on September 1, 2010. Applicants were directed to the full announcement for detailed submission requirements and deadlines, including specific times and any formatting or documentation rules. For access issues, the contact point provided was the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), with operating hours listed as Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

Overall, this opportunity was designed to fund a small set of relatively substantial partnership projects that could demonstrate real impact in HIV prevention among minority college students. By requiring experienced national minority-serving organizations to lead and by pushing collaboration with both healthcare providers and minority-serving campuses, the program aimed to blend public health capacity, clinical/community connections, and campus reach into interventions that reduce risky behaviors and help close persistent HIV/AIDS disparities affecting minority young adults.
