Opportunity Summary:

The FY15 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants for Region 4 covers the entire state of Kentucky and funds a single Title X family planning services project. The federal goal is to support the establishment and operation of voluntary family planning programs that are open to anyone seeking services, while giving priority to people from low income families. The program is designed to ensure broad access to high-quality family planning care and related preventive health services, delivered in a way that is consistent with Title X requirements and federal program expectations.

This opportunity is a discretionary grant in the health category (CFDA 93.217, Family Planning Services) administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The anticipated number of awards is one, with a set funding level: both the award ceiling and award floor are $5,414,000, meaning the expected award amount is fixed at that level rather than offered as a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility, although program sustainability and leveraging other resources can still matter in competitive scoring depending on the full announcement criteria.

Eligible applicants include any public or private nonprofit entity located in a U.S. state or qualifying territory. The announcement also emphasizes that even if a state government applies, local and regional public or private nonprofit organizations may still apply directly to the Secretary for a Title X grant under this competition. Faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are explicitly eligible as well. In practice, this means eligibility is intentionally broad, aiming to attract capable organizations that can manage a statewide network or system of services and comply with Title X rules.

The funded project is expected to provide a full scope of Title X family planning services. That includes clinical family planning care and related preventive health services, along with information, education, and counseling tied to family planning, plus referral services when needed. The announcement also notes that applications proposing to rely on other entities (for example, subcontractors or partner clinics) will be evaluated in part on how inclusive the applicant is in considering all qualified providers that can deliver required services and are eligible for federal funds. In other words, if the applicant plans to build a provider network, the government will look for evidence that the applicant is not unnecessarily excluding capable providers and is designing the service delivery approach to best reach people across the full Kentucky service area.

Applicants are instructed to base their proposals on the Title X statute, applicable regulations, legislative mandates, and key program guidance. In particular, the announcement points applicants to the current Program Guidelines issued in 2014, along with Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Program Policy Notices, program priorities, and other issues described in the full application package. This signals that success depends not only on proposing services, but on demonstrating strong compliance planning, quality standards, and alignment with Title X operational and reporting expectations as laid out in those governing documents.

Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 15 010, a posted date of September 8, 2014, and an application closing date of April 1, 2015 (with an archive date of May 1, 2015). Applicants were directed to follow the grant announcement for specific submission requirements, dates, and times, and to use Grants.gov for access and support. For technical issues accessing the announcement, the listed support channel is the Grants.gov Contact Center at 1-800-518-4726 or support@grants.gov, available 24/7 except federal holidays.
