Opportunity Summary:

The FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Rhode Island) is a federal discretionary grant opportunity under Title X (CFDA 93.217) intended to support the establishment and operation of voluntary family planning service projects in Rhode Island. The announcement was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health in anticipation of FY 2013 appropriations, meaning awards are contingent on Congress appropriating funds and on compliance with any requirements included in the final appropriations law and other governing authorities. The overall purpose is to ensure that people who want family planning services can access them, with an explicit emphasis on prioritizing services for individuals from low-income families.

Eligible applicants include any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or territory, and the opportunity specifically notes that local and regional entities may apply directly to the Secretary even if statewide entities have traditionally been the applicants. The eligibility language is broad and inclusive, explicitly allowing faith-based organizations as well as American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations to apply. Private nonprofit applicants must be able to document their nonprofit status using acceptable proof described in the full announcement. The program also signals that applications proposing to deliver services through partner organizations will be reviewed with attention to how inclusive the applicant plans to be when selecting or working with other entities that are eligible for federal funding, with the goal of serving individuals in need across the proposed service area.

The services supported by this funding include clinical family planning services as well as related preventive health services, along with education, information, and counseling connected to family planning. The announcement also anticipates the use of referral services when appropriate. Applicants are expected to build their project plans around the Title X statute and regulations, relevant program guidelines, legislative mandates, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) program instructions, stated program priorities, and other key issues highlighted in the announcement and application kit. In practical terms, this means applicants should align both service delivery and program administration with established Title X requirements rather than treating the grant as a more general public health funding source.

For Rhode Island, the opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a set funding level, showing both an award floor and ceiling of $1,138,691. No cost sharing or matching was required. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is health. The announcement was posted on August 1, 2012, with an application closing date of October 1, 2012, and an archive date of October 31, 2012. Application submission details, including exact deadlines and requirements, are referenced as being contained in the full grant announcement materials.

Applicants needing help accessing the announcement were directed to the Grants.gov Contact Center, available 24/7 (excluding federal holidays), by phone at 1-800-518-4726 or via email at support@grants.gov.
