Opportunity Summary:

The FY12 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants Illinois (Chicago Area) (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 12 027) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity under the Title X Family Planning Services program (CFDA 93.217). It was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health and is intended to fund one organization to establish and operate a voluntary family planning services project serving the Chicago-area region of Illinois. The central purpose is to ensure that people who want family planning services can access them, with an explicit priority placed on serving individuals from low-income families.

Applicants are expected to propose a project that delivers a full range of Title X family planning services. In practice, this includes clinical family planning services as well as related preventive health services. The announcement also emphasizes the importance of providing information, education, and counseling tied to family planning, along with making referrals when appropriate. The overall expectation is a program that is accessible and responsive to community needs, offering services on a voluntary basis and structured to reach populations with the greatest barriers to care.

Eligibility is aimed at public and private nonprofit entities, including local and regional organizations that can apply directly to the Secretary for a Title X family planning services grant. While the listing of eligible applicants is summarized as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the narrative makes clear that public and private nonprofit entities are the intended applicants. There is no stated cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.

A key program design consideration involves how applicants plan to deliver services across the anticipated service area. If an applicant proposes a model that relies on other organizations (such as subcontractors or partner clinics) to provide direct services, the funding decision will consider how inclusive the applicant is in selecting and working with eligible entities. In other words, proposals are expected to demonstrate an open and comprehensive approach to building a service network that can best meet needs throughout the region, rather than limiting participation without justification. This reflects an emphasis on maximizing service coverage and ensuring that the project is positioned to serve individuals effectively across the area.

Applicants are instructed to develop proposals in alignment with the Title X statute and its implementing regulations, as well as program guidelines, legislative mandates, and stated program priorities. The announcement points applicants to the application kit and related guidance as the standards for building the work plan, service approach, and compliance framework. This implies that applications should reflect Title X expectations around quality, access, counseling and education, appropriate referrals, and other program requirements embedded in federal guidance.

Funding details are unusually specific: the opportunity anticipated a single award with both an award ceiling and award floor of $330,000, indicating the planned grant amount was fixed at $330,000 for the selected applicant. The opportunity was posted February 14, 2012, with a closing date of June 1, 2012, and it was later archived July 1, 2012. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health.

For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the contact provided 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, which is standard support for federal funding opportunity access rather than a programmatic point of contact.
