Opportunity Summary:

The FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Mississippi) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity under Title X (CFDA 93.217) administered through the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It was released in anticipation of FY 2013 appropriations, meaning awards would ultimately depend on Congress approving funds and on compliance with all requirements in the applicable appropriations law. The central purpose is to fund a single project in Mississippi that will establish and operate voluntary family planning services for anyone seeking care, while giving priority in service delivery to individuals from low-income families. The program emphasizes broad access, client choice, and a preventive public health approach, with services structured around Title X law, regulations, and the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) guidance.

Eligible applicants include any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory, including faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations. While states may apply, the announcement makes a point of encouraging local and regional entities not to hold back just because a state agency has historically been the applicant; local and regional nonprofits or public entities can apply directly to the Secretary for a Title X grant. Private nonprofit applicants must provide acceptable proof of nonprofit status as described in the application instructions.

Funded projects are expected to deliver a full range of family planning services, which the announcement describes as clinical family planning and related preventive health services, along with information, education, and counseling tied to family planning, plus referrals when needed. In practice, this typically means organizing or supporting clinic-based care, ensuring appropriate counseling and education, and building referral pathways so clients can obtain additional health services beyond what the project directly provides. Applications are expected to be grounded in the Title X statute, relevant federal regulations, Title X Program Guidelines, legislative mandates, OPA Program Instructions, and any stated program priorities and key issues referenced in the announcement and application kit.

A notable feature of this opportunity is how it addresses service delivery partnerships and networks. Applicants are allowed to propose models that rely on other organizations to provide services, but funding decisions will consider how inclusive the applicant is in selecting and working with other entities that are eligible to receive federal funds. In other words, if an applicant plans to subcontract or build a provider network, the proposal is expected to show openness and fairness in considering qualified partners, with the goal of serving people in need across the proposed service area as effectively as possible.

In terms of funding specifics, the announcement anticipated one award with an award ceiling and floor both listed as $4,714,254, indicating a single, fixed award amount for the Mississippi Title X service area under this competition. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on August 1, 2012, with an application closing date of April 1, 2013, and an archive date of May 1, 2013. Applicants were directed to consult the full grant announcement for the exact submission requirements, as well as the required dates and times for filing through Grants.gov, with technical support available through the Grants.gov Contact Center.
