Opportunity Summary:
FY10 The Young Womens HIV/STD Mobilization Project: Moving Beyond the Messaging (Funding Opportunity Number WH SHG 10 001) is a discretionary federal grant offered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health using a cooperative agreement funding instrument. The central goal is to strengthen HIV/AIDS and STD prevention efforts for young women ages 13 to 24 by going further than awareness campaigns and delivering accurate, comprehensive prevention education alongside promotion of healthy behaviors that support both mental and physical well-being. In practice, the opportunity is designed to help organizations build out programming that speaks directly to the realities young women face, using approaches that are intentionally gender-responsive rather than one-size-fits-all.
The project is not aimed at starting brand-new programs from scratch. Instead, it targets existing community-based organizations that already focus on female adolescents and youth girls and have a documented track record serving girls and young women in the 13 to 24 age range. Awardees are expected to expand the capacity of their current gender-specific services by integrating an HIV/STD component into established programming. The emphasis on "moving beyond the messaging" signals that applicants should be prepared to operationalize prevention through practical education, skills-building, and supportive activities that help young women maintain health and reduce risk, rather than relying mainly on public service announcements or basic informational materials.
Eligibility is limited and intentionally narrow. Applicants may include national nonprofit community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, and tribal or urban Indian organizations, but they must meet specific criteria. They must have an established history of serving girls and/or young women, and they must be national organizations with affiliates located across different regions or geographic areas. In addition, the applicant organization must serve as the lead entity for its national network. This structure requirement indicates the government is looking for organizations that can coordinate across multiple sites, support consistent implementation, and spread effective practices through an existing affiliate network, rather than funding isolated local projects.
The funding scale and competition details suggest a small cohort of awardees with moderate award sizes. The announcement anticipated up to five awards, with an award floor of $150,000 and an award ceiling of $250,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces a common barrier for nonprofits and indicates the federal funds are intended to directly underwrite the capacity expansion and program integration work.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted June 14, 2010, with an application deadline of July 15, 2010, and an archive date of August 14, 2010. The CFDA listing referenced is 93.088, Advancing System Improvements for Key Issues in Womens Health, placing the project within a broader womens health improvement framework. Because it is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, awardees should typically expect substantial federal involvement during the project period, such as collaboration on program direction, reporting expectations, technical assistance, or coordinated evaluation activities, consistent with how cooperative agreements are commonly managed.
For access or submission support, the announcement directs applicants to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov) for help obtaining the full announcement or resolving electronic access issues. The full announcement would contain the detailed application submission requirements, formatting rules, and any additional programmatic expectations beyond the summary description provided here.
