Opportunity Summary:

The FY15 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants for Region 6 (covering the entire state of Oklahoma) is a federal discretionary grant opportunity under the Title X Family Planning Services program (CFDA 93.217), administered by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The purpose of the award is to fund a single statewide project that will establish and operate voluntary family planning services for anyone seeking care, while giving service priority to individuals from low-income families. The program is designed to support broad access to family planning and related preventive health services across the full anticipated service area, rather than limiting care to certain subpopulations or locations.

The announcement invites applications from public or private nonprofit organizations. Eligibility is broad and includes nonprofits located within a state or U.S. territory as defined in the notice, and it explicitly notes that local and regional entities may apply directly to the Secretary even if a state entity also applies. Faith-based organizations are eligible, as are American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations. A key consideration for applicants planning to deliver services through partnerships or subcontracting is how inclusive and comprehensive their approach is. In other words, if an applicant proposes to rely on other providers to deliver services, the government will look at whether the applicant is meaningfully open to working with all qualified entities that can provide required services and are eligible for federal funding, with the goal of reaching people in need throughout Oklahoma.

Funded activities are centered on Title X family planning services, which include clinical family planning care and related preventive health services, along with education, information, and counseling connected to family planning. The project may also provide referrals when indicated. The notice emphasizes that applications should be grounded in the Title X statute, applicable federal regulations and legislative mandates, and the most current program guidance available at the time, including the 2014 Title X Program Guidelines, Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Program Policy Notices, and other priorities and issues identified in the announcement and application package. This signals that applicants are expected to demonstrate operational and clinical alignment with Title X program requirements and standards, not just general public health capacity.

From a funding standpoint, the opportunity anticipates one award for Oklahoma. The total expected funding is set at $4,444,000, with both the award floor and award ceiling listed as $4,444,000, indicating a single, fixed award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants. The opportunity was posted on September 9, 2014, with an application closing date of December 31, 2014, and it was later archived on January 30, 2015. Applicants were directed to consult the full announcement for exact submission requirements, deadlines, and times, and those unable to access the announcement online were referred to the Grants.gov Contact Center for assistance.
