Opportunity Summary:
The Improving the System of Services for CYSHCN grant opportunity (HRSA Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-067) was a discretionary federal grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.110 (Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs). Its central aim was to strengthen how communities and states serve Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (CYSHCN) by expanding access to a high-quality, comprehensive, and coordinated system of community-based services. A major emphasis of the program was that services should be family-centered and culturally competent, meaning families are treated as essential partners and services are responsive to cultural, linguistic, and community contexts.
The grant was designed to help State Title V CYSHCN programs, family-led organizations, health care providers, and other partners implement evidence-based practices that advance six widely used “core outcomes†for an effective CYSHCN system of services. The first outcome focuses on family partnership and satisfaction, prioritizing meaningful family involvement in decision-making and ensuring families feel services meet their needs. The second outcome targets access to coordinated, ongoing, and comprehensive care within a medical home model, where care is organized, continuous, and integrated across providers and settings. The third outcome addresses the financial side of care, seeking to ensure families have adequate insurance coverage and financing mechanisms so costs do not prevent children from getting needed services. The fourth outcome is early and continuous screening, emphasizing timely identification of special health care needs so children can be connected to appropriate supports as soon as possible. The fifth outcome concentrates on making community-based systems easier to navigate, reducing fragmentation by organizing services so families can find, access, and use them without unnecessary barriers. The sixth outcome focuses on transition services for youth, ensuring adolescents and young adults receive supports that prepare them for adult health care, employment, and independent living.
In practical terms, this opportunity supported projects that improve how multiple parts of the system work together, such as public health programs, clinical providers, insurers, schools, and family support networks. The intent was not just to fund isolated services, but to improve the underlying infrastructure of coordination, access, and continuity, with measurable progress toward the six outcomes. While the announcement does not list specific required interventions in the excerpt provided, it clearly anchors funded work in evidence-based approaches and in partnerships among Title V programs, families, and cross-sector stakeholders.
The program anticipated making 18 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $3,000,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching. Eligibility was broad under 21 CFR Part 51a.3(a): any public or private entity could apply, including Indian tribes and tribal organizations (as defined at 25 U.S.C. 450b), as well as faith-based and community-based organizations. The opportunity was posted on December 8, 2010, with an application closing date of February 18, 2011, and it was later archived on April 19, 2011. Applicants or interested parties were directed to the HRSA announcement link for full details and could contact the HRSA Call Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV or 877-464-4772) for access issues or assistance.
