Opportunity Summary:
The FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Maryland) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity under CFDA 93.217 (Family Planning Services) administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It was posted on August 1, 2012, with an application closing date of December 31, 2012, and it was issued in anticipation of FY 2013 appropriations. Because the funds depend on final congressional appropriations, awards are explicitly subject to the legislative requirements and any conditions contained in the applicable appropriations law.
The purpose of the grant is to support the establishment and operation of voluntary Title X family planning projects in Maryland. Funded projects are expected to provide family planning services to anyone who seeks them, while giving priority to individuals from low-income families. The announcement frames family planning broadly, covering clinical family planning services as well as related preventive health services. It also emphasizes the importance of providing information, education, and counseling connected to family planning, along with referral services when appropriate.
Eligible applicants include any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory, and the announcement highlights that local and regional organizations may apply directly to the Secretary, even in situations where statewide entities have historically been the primary applicants. The eligibility language is meant to encourage competition and access, making clear that a tradition of statewide awards should not discourage local or regional nonprofits and public entities from submitting proposals. Faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are also eligible to apply. Private nonprofit applicants must be able to document their nonprofit status using acceptable proof as described in the full application instructions.
Only one award was anticipated for this opportunity, and both the award ceiling and floor were listed as $4,111,717, signaling a single, fixed-size award for the Maryland service area rather than a range of possible funding levels. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
The announcement also addresses how service delivery arrangements will be viewed during review. If an applicant proposes to rely on other organizations to provide some services, funding decisions will consider how inclusive the applicant will be in selecting partners, specifically whether it will consider all entities that are eligible to receive federal funds in order to best serve people across the proposed service area. In practical terms, this places weight on fair, open, and needs-based coordination and referral networks, rather than limiting service provision to a narrow set of preferred subcontractors or affiliates.
Applicants are instructed to design their proposals in alignment with the Title X statute, applicable regulations, program guidelines, legislative mandates, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) program instructions, program priorities, and other key issues referenced in the announcement and application kit. This means proposals are expected to reflect established Title X requirements and operating standards, including how clinical services, education, counseling, confidentiality practices, and referrals are structured and managed under the program framework. For submission logistics and access issues, the announcement directs applicants to Grants.gov and its 24/7 contact center for technical support.
