Opportunity Summary:
FY10 The Linkage to Life (L2L) Program, subtitled "Rebuilding Broken Bridges for Minority Families Impacted by HIV/AIDS," was a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It was designed to strengthen and test a family-centered, integrated network model that connects medical care with social services for high-risk racial and ethnic minority families affected by HIV/AIDS, especially those experiencing major life transitions such as leaving domestic violence situations, returning from incarceration, or completing substance abuse treatment. The overall idea was that HIV outcomes improve when families can move through a coordinated system that addresses health needs alongside the practical barriers that often derail treatment adherence and prevention efforts.
The program had three core aims. First, it sought to demonstrate the effectiveness of a family-centered, integrated health and social service network in reducing HIV incidence and improving health outcomes among high-risk minority populations navigating transitions tied to domestic violence, incarceration, and substance abuse recovery. Second, it focused on identifying and addressing the health and social barriers that can increase HIV risk and worsen outcomes, such as unstable housing, lack of access to consistent healthcare, behavioral health needs, trauma, stigma, and difficulty navigating service systems. Third, it aimed to interrupt generational cycles of behavior and circumstances that elevate HIV risk among dependent youth, recognizing that prevention and stability for young people in affected families is critical to reducing future infections.
In practical terms, FY 2010 funding supported the creation or expansion of family-centered, integrated health and social service resource networks. These networks were expected to coordinate and ensure access to a full continuum of services, including HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention, general healthcare, social and supportive services, substance abuse treatment, and behavioral health services. A key emphasis was not simply providing isolated services, but organizing them into a coordinated system with robust case management so individuals and families could actually use them consistently and effectively during high-risk transition periods.
The award mechanism was a cooperative agreement, meaning recipients would typically work closely with the federal agency during implementation rather than operating entirely independently as in a standard grant. The activity area was health, and the funding was associated with CFDA 93.137, the Community Programs to Improve Minority Health Grant Program. The opportunity anticipated making 6 awards, each set at a fixed amount, with an award floor and ceiling both listed as $475,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement noted.
Eligibility was targeted and specific. Applicants needed to be private, nonprofit, community-based, minority-serving organizations with at least five years of experience delivering comprehensive HIV/AIDS services to high-risk minority populations. In addition, applicants had to document substantial experience with intensive case management and with coordinating healthcare, social, or supportive services for minority adults and youth transitioning from substance abuse treatment, domestic violence, and/or incarceration. This requirement signaled that the program was meant for organizations already deeply embedded in the community service landscape and capable of building coordinated networks across multiple systems.
The funding opportunity (MP MPC 10 007) was posted and created on July 3, 2010, with an original and final closing date of August 2, 2010, and it was archived on September 1, 2010. Application submission details and timing were to follow the instructions in the full grant announcement. For applicants who had trouble accessing the notice through Grants.gov, the listing provided the Grants.gov Contact Center information, including phone support (1-800-518-4726) and email support (support@grants.gov) during standard weekday hours.
