Opportunity Summary:

The FY15 Announcement of Availability of Funds to Enroll Family Planning Clients into Health Insurance Programs (Funding Opportunity Number PA FPH 15 029) was a discretionary grant opportunity from the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It was designed specifically for existing Title X family planning services grantees that already had an active Title X project funded as of March 31, 2015 (and with an active project period as of April 1, 2015). The central purpose was to help these grantees start or scale up practical, on-the-ground activities that assist people in enrolling in health insurance coverage they qualify for, with the broader goal of improving access to family planning services and related preventive health care for both current clients and potential new clients.

In practical terms, the announcement focused on strengthening enrollment assistance capacity within Title X service networks. Rather than funding clinical services directly, the emphasis was on enabling patients to obtain health coverage, which in turn supports sustainable access to family planning and preventive services. The FOA anticipated that grantees would use the funds to implement or expand outreach, navigation, and enrollment support efforts across their Title X service sites, helping individuals understand coverage options and complete enrollment processes where eligible.

Eligibility was limited to Title X grantees, and any subrecipient organizations that wanted to benefit from the activities funded under this award had to be included through their parent Title X grantee rather than applying independently. Each Title X grantee was permitted to submit only one application, but that single application could cover multiple service sites and/or multiple subrecipients. Applications were expected to clearly spell out exactly how grant funds would be used and identify which sites in the Title X project would receive support, reinforcing that the funding was meant to be targeted and operationally specific rather than broadly described.

The program parameters were relatively straightforward. OPA expected to make about 10 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000. The award size was fixed at $200,000 per award (both the ceiling and the floor were $200,000), indicating that applicants were competing primarily on the strength and readiness of their proposed enrollment assistance approach rather than on proposing different budget levels. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowered the barrier to participation for eligible Title X grantees.

Key administrative details included a posted date of March 13, 2015, with the application closing date set for May 18, 2015, and an archive date of June 17, 2015. The CFDA number associated with this opportunity was 93.217 (Family Planning Services). For applicants needing technical help accessing the announcement through Grants.gov, the listing directed them to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), which operates 24/7 except federal holidays.
