Opportunity Summary:

The FY11 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Minnesota) is a federal discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: PA FPH 11 005) administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It supports the creation and operation of voluntary family planning service projects in Minnesota under the Title X Family Planning Services program (CFDA 93.217). The core purpose is to make family planning services available to anyone who seeks them, while giving service priority to individuals from low-income families. In practice, this means funding organizations that can deliver accessible, client-centered reproductive health care and supportive services in a way that aligns with Title X rules and expectations.

Funded projects are expected to provide clinical family planning services along with related preventive health services. The announcement also emphasizes non-clinical components that are central to Title X, including information-sharing, education, and counseling related to family planning, plus referral services when needed. Applicants are directed to use the Title X authorizing legislation, relevant federal regulations, program guidelines, legislative mandates, program priorities, and other issues laid out in the announcement and application kit to shape their program design. In other words, proposals should not be generic health service applications; they should clearly demonstrate how the applicant will operate a Title X-compliant family planning program and meet federal expectations for quality, access, and appropriate prioritization of services.

Eligibility is broad but specific: any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory may apply, and the announcement explicitly notes that faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are eligible. Private nonprofit applicants must be able to document their nonprofit status using acceptable proof as described in the application instructions (referenced as Section IV.2 in the full announcement). The opportunity is structured as a grant (not a contract), and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can be important for organizations serving low-income communities that may not have flexible revenue to meet match requirements.

The opportunity anticipated making about five awards. The listed award ceiling and floor are both $2,980,486, which indicates a fixed funding level for the award amount in this posting. The grant was posted on August 4, 2010, with the application closing date set for September 29, 2010, and an archive date of October 29, 2010. Applicants were instructed to follow the full announcement for specific submission requirements, including any date-and-time rules for electronic submission.

For access issues related to the full announcement or the online submission system, the notice points applicants to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), with support hours listed as Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time. This is particularly relevant because federal applications often require strict compliance with submission procedures, and technical problems near the deadline can jeopardize an otherwise strong application if not addressed through the official support channel.
