Opportunity Summary:
The FY11 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Alabama, North Carolina areas) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity focused on supporting voluntary family planning service projects in specified areas of Alabama and North Carolina. The program’s core purpose is to fund organizations that can establish and operate comprehensive family planning services that are open to anyone seeking care, while giving priority to individuals from low-income families. In practice, this means funded projects are expected to reduce barriers to access and ensure services are available to the people most likely to face financial or logistical obstacles to preventive reproductive health care.
The services supported under this opportunity align with Title X of the Public Health Service Act, and applicants are expected to build their project plans around Title X requirements and related federal guidance. The announcement emphasizes that family planning is not limited to contraception alone; it includes clinical family planning services and related preventive health services, along with information, education, and counseling connected to family planning decisions. It also includes referral services when needed, meaning funded providers should be prepared to connect clients to additional medical or supportive services outside the project when appropriate. The overall expectation is that projects will offer client-centered, medically sound care that includes education and counseling as integral parts of service delivery, not optional add-ons.
This opportunity was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health and is listed under CFDA (now commonly referred to as the assistance listing) number 93.217, Family Planning Services. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health. The announcement anticipates making around 10 awards. The stated award floor is $5,516,510 and the award ceiling is $7,135,343, indicating the federal government expected to fund relatively large, regional service delivery programs rather than small single-site pilots. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving funds.
Eligibility is described broadly as public and private nonprofit entities, with the formal listing noting “Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)” and no further eligibility detail provided in the excerpted data. In practical terms, this typically points to established public health organizations, nonprofit health providers, or similar entities capable of operating a network or system of clinical service delivery and meeting federal program compliance obligations. The announcement directs applicants to rely on Title X legislation, applicable regulations, program guidelines, legislative mandates, program priorities, and related issues described in the announcement and application kit when developing proposals, which signals that compliance, quality standards, and adherence to federal program rules are central to how applications would be evaluated.
The opportunity was posted on July 22, 2010, with an application closing date of March 29, 2011, and an archive date of April 28, 2011. For applicants who could not access the full announcement online, the notice provides a Grants.gov Contact Center support option via phone (1-800-518-4726) and email (support@grants.gov), with weekday operating hours from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
