Opportunity Summary:

The FY15 Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Family Planning Services Grants for Region 7 covers the entire state of Nebraska and offers Title X funding to support voluntary family planning service projects. The opportunity is a discretionary federal grant in the health category (CFDA 93.217, Family Planning Services) administered under the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The goal is to fund an organization to establish and operate a statewide project that delivers family planning services to anyone who seeks them, while giving priority to individuals from low-income families. The program is structured to ensure broad access to services and to support a comprehensive, client-centered approach that includes medical services as well as education and counseling.

Applicants are expected to propose a project that can provide, either directly or through a network, clinical family planning and related preventive health services. Beyond clinical care, the scope specifically includes information, education, and counseling related to family planning, along with referral services when appropriate. The announcement emphasizes that funded projects should be grounded in the Title X statute and related requirements, including applicable regulations, legislative mandates, and the 2014 Title X Program Guidelines, as well as Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Program Policy Notices and other priorities described in the full application package. In practical terms, applicants need to show they understand Title X standards and can operate in compliance with the full set of program rules and expectations.

Eligibility is broad but limited to public or private nonprofit entities that are located in a U.S. state or territory (including the 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, and other listed territories and freely associated states). The announcement highlights that local and regional public or private nonprofits may apply directly to the Secretary for Title X funding, even in cases where a state government might also apply. Faith-based organizations and American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American organizations are explicitly eligible as well. One important consideration is how the applicant plans to deliver services across the service area. If an applicant intends to rely on other organizations to provide services, the funding decision will consider whether the applicant is inclusive in selecting partner entities, meaning it should fairly consider all capable organizations that are eligible to receive federal funds and can best serve people throughout Nebraska.

This opportunity anticipates making a single award for Nebraska, with an expected award amount that is fixed at both the floor and the ceiling: $2,072,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, which means the federal award is not contingent on the applicant bringing additional non-federal matching funds as a condition of the grant. The funding opportunity number is PA-FPH-15-024. The posting date is September 9, 2014, with an application closing date of April 1, 2015, and an archive date of May 1, 2015. Applicants are instructed to follow the full grant announcement for the exact submission requirements and any date-and-time specifics tied to the deadline.
