Opportunity Summary:

The FY11 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Louisiana) (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 11 008) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity under CFDA 93.217, Family Planning Services. It was posted on August 4, 2010, by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, and it solicits applications to run Title X-funded family planning projects serving people in Louisiana. The core purpose is to establish and operate voluntary family planning service projects that are open to anyone seeking services, while giving service priority to individuals from low-income families, consistent with Title X program requirements.

The funded projects are expected to provide a broad set of family planning-related services. This includes clinical family planning services and related preventive health services, along with education, information, and counseling tied to family planning. The announcement also emphasizes referral services when indicated, meaning applicants should be prepared not only to deliver services directly but also to connect clients to other needed health or supportive services when those needs fall outside the project scope or require specialized care.

A key theme of the opportunity is that applicants are expected to build their proposed programs around established Title X expectations rather than inventing a new framework from scratch. Applications should be guided by Title X legislation, applicable federal regulations, Program Guidelines, legislative mandates, stated program priorities, and other issues highlighted in the announcement and the application kit. In practical terms, this means proposals should demonstrate clear alignment with Title X rules and service standards, show how services will be delivered and monitored, and explain how the project will ensure access, quality, and appropriate prioritization for low-income clients.

Eligibility is broad but specific: any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory (as defined in the announcement, including the District of Columbia and multiple U.S. territories and freely associated states) may apply, and faith-based organizations as well as American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are explicitly eligible. Private nonprofit applicants must provide proof of nonprofit status, with the announcement pointing applicants to Section IV.2 for what counts as acceptable documentation.

The opportunity anticipated making up to 10 awards. The listed award ceiling and award floor are both $4,797,004, indicating the expected award size is fixed at that amount per the posted synopsis. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant, although they would still need to present a viable budget and staffing plan that supports effective service delivery.

Important dates include an original and current closing date of March 30, 2011, with an archive date of April 29, 2011. The announcement notes that applicants should rely on the full grant announcement for detailed submission requirements and the exact deadlines and times, which is typical for Grants.gov postings where formatting, attachments, and timing rules can be strict. For access issues with the full announcement, the listed point of contact is the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern) and support@grants.gov.
