FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Vermont) | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The FY13 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants (Vermont) (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 13 003) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity in the health category under CFDA 93.217 (Family Planning Services). It was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health in anticipation of FY 2013 appropriations, meaning awards are contingent on Congress appropriating the funds and on compliance with any legislative conditions included in the final appropriations law. The program is part of the Title X family planning program and is intended to support the establishment and operation of voluntary family planning service projects in Vermont.

The purpose of the grant is to fund organizations that will provide family planning services to anyone seeking them, while giving priority to people from low income families. The scope of services described includes clinical family planning care and related preventive health services, along with information, education, and counseling connected to family planning. The announcement also emphasizes referral services as appropriate, reflecting a broader preventive health and patient support approach rather than only direct clinical encounters. Applicants are expected to design their projects in line with Title X statutory requirements, applicable federal regulations, Title X Program Guidelines, legislative mandates, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Program Instructions, and other program priorities and issues referenced in the announcement and application kit.

Eligibility is broad but limited to public or private nonprofit entities located in a U.S. state or eligible territory (including, among others, the District of Columbia and several U.S. territories and freely associated states). The notice makes a point of encouraging local and regional public or private nonprofit entities to apply directly to the Secretary, even if the state has historically been the applicant or recipient. Faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are explicitly eligible. Private nonprofit applicants must provide acceptable proof of nonprofit status, as detailed in the application instructions.

A notable feature of the announcement is how it treats service delivery models that involve partnerships or subcontracting. If an applicant proposes to rely on other entities to provide services, funding decisions will consider whether the applicant’s plan is inclusive in considering all entities that are eligible to receive federal funds, with the goal of best serving individuals across the proposed service area. In practice, this signals that reviewers will look for an open, community-wide approach to building provider networks rather than a closed or unnecessarily restrictive arrangement, especially where doing so could limit access for people in need.

For Vermont specifically, the announcement anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a total project amount set at both the award floor and ceiling of $800,329, indicating the agency expected one grant at that funding level rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant (though other programmatic or budget expectations could still apply under Title X rules and the full announcement).

Key dates listed include a posted and created date of August 1, 2012, with an application closing date of October 1, 2012, and an archive date of October 31, 2012. Submission details, including any formatting, deadlines by time zone, and required forms, are governed by the full grant announcement and the application kit. For technical issues accessing the announcement, the Grants.gov Contact Center is the designated support channel (1-800-518-4726; support@grants.gov).
