Opportunity Summary:
The FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Alaska: Anchorage, Juneau, Soldotna, and Sitka) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 13 028) administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health under CFDA 93.217 (Family Planning Services). It is a Title X funding notice released in anticipation of the FY 2013 appropriation, meaning awards would depend on Congress finalizing funding and on any conditions set in the relevant appropriations law. The purpose is to support the establishment and operation of voluntary family planning projects that provide services to anyone seeking them, while giving priority to individuals from low-income families.
The program expects to make a single award for the Alaska service area listed, with a total funding level fixed at $1,130,275 (both the award floor and award ceiling are $1,130,275). The notice states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity was posted August 1, 2012, with an application closing date of April 1, 2013, and an archive date of May 1, 2013; applicants were instructed to follow the full announcement for the specific submission requirements, including exact due dates and times.
Eligible applicants include any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory (broadly defined to include the 50 states, DC, and multiple U.S. territories and freely associated states listed in the announcement). A key point in the eligibility language is that local and regional entities may apply directly to the Secretary for Title X funding even if there has historically been a statewide grantee; in other words, the existence of a traditional statewide applicant is not meant to discourage local or regional organizations from applying. Faith-based organizations and 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 the section of the application instructions that describes acceptable documentation.
In terms of what the grant supports, the funded project is expected to deliver the full scope of Title X family planning services. That includes clinical family planning and related preventive health services, along with education, information, and counseling tied to family planning, plus referral services when medically or programmatically indicated. The emphasis is on voluntary access and broad availability, with a program priority on serving people with low incomes. The announcement also signals that applicants should ground their program design in the Title X statute and regulations, official program guidelines, legislative mandates, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Program Instructions, and any priorities or key issues identified in the announcement and application kit.
The notice also addresses how applicants may structure service delivery. If an applicant proposes to rely on other organizations (such as subcontractors or partner clinics) to provide some or all services, the government will consider how inclusive the applicant is in selecting and working with eligible entities that can receive federal funds, with the goal of best serving individuals across the anticipated service area. In practice, this encourages applicants to build networks that are not unnecessarily restrictive and that can reach people throughout Anchorage, Juneau, Soldotna, and Sitka.
For practical support, the announcement directs applicants who cannot access the full notice electronically to contact the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), which operates continuously except on federal holidays.
