Opportunity Summary:
The FY10 State Partnership Grant Program to Improve Minority Health (Funding Opportunity Number MP STT 10 001; CFDA 93.296) is a discretionary grant opportunity administered under the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. Its central purpose is to show, in practical and measurable ways, how strategic partnerships at the state or territorial level can improve the health status of racial and ethnic minority populations and help eliminate persistent health disparities. The program is built around the idea that coordinated, cross-sector partnerships (linking public agencies, private organizations, and community-based minority-serving groups) can be a more effective and efficient way to identify disparities, target interventions, and strengthen systems than isolated efforts.
The activities supported by the grant are broad but clearly centered on state-level capacity and action. Funds can be used to address data needs related to health disparities, which can include improving how disparities are measured, tracked, and used for decision-making. The program also emphasizes developing and strengthening partnerships that can meaningfully coordinate around minority health priorities. Another major focus is building or improving systems that expand access to health care, alongside implementing targeted interventions aimed at specific health issues. These interventions are expected to promote science-based health promotion and disease prevention, support or advance strategic plans and policies, and reinforce state-level health practices that have a demonstrated or research-supported basis. In addition, the announcement highlights workforce diversity as a priority area, supporting strategies and interventions that advance policies to expand recruitment of racial and ethnic minorities into health professions training during the grant period, reflecting the longer-term role workforce representation can play in improving access, cultural responsiveness, and outcomes.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. Only established state or territorial Offices of Minority Health may apply, and they must already exist at the time the application is submitted. The announcement specifies that a qualifying office must be formally recognized through legislation, executive order, or a directive process. States without a formally recognized Office of Minority Health are not eligible. This requirement reflects the program’s expectation that applicants already have the infrastructure, institutional linkages, and coordinating role needed to build effective partnerships and implement statewide or territory-wide strategies.
The opportunity anticipated up to 50 awards, with an award floor of $125,000 and an award ceiling of $140,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated in the source data, which can make participation more feasible for eligible offices operating under constrained state budgets. The grant mechanism is a standard grant instrument, and the activity category is health.
Key dates in the announcement include a posted and creation date of July 15, 2010, and an application closing date of August 13, 2010, with the archive date listed as September 12, 2010. Applicants were instructed to consult the full grant announcement for the specific submission requirements as well as the exact dates and times tied to application deadlines.
For application access and technical support, the opportunity directs applicants to Grants.gov resources. If applicants had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, they were advised to contact the Grants.gov Contact Center at 1-800-518-4726 (Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern) or email support@grants.gov.
