Opportunity Summary:

The Maternal Health Emergency Management Training (MHEMT) opportunity is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) discretionary grant designed to broaden the impact of the Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health (AIM) program by focusing on settings that often fall outside traditional labor-and-delivery units. The program is aimed at improving how pregnant and postpartum patients are recognized, stabilized, and managed when they present in non-delivery environments or in clinics and facilities with limited resources. At its core, MHEMT is about strengthening real-world readiness for maternal emergencies in the places where complications may first be noticed but where specialized obstetric teams may not be immediately available.

The main purpose of MHEMT is workforce capacity-building and quality improvement for clinicians and first responders who may encounter pregnant or postpartum women in urgent, emergent, or otherwise non-obstetric contexts. This includes the broader healthcare workforce operating in non-delivery settings, which can include environments like emergency departments, urgent care centers, primary care clinics, rural health clinics, community health settings, and other low-resource clinical sites. The intent is to increase the ability of these providers to deliver timely, appropriate care during maternal health emergencies, which often requires rapid assessment, escalation, coordination, and safe transfer when needed. By extending AIM’s reach beyond delivery units, the program targets a key gap in maternal safety: complications can emerge before, between, or after delivery, and many patients first seek help in settings not built around obstetric care.

The award is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means HRSA expects substantial involvement during the project period through collaboration, guidance, and shared oversight rather than a hands-off grant structure. The funding opportunity number is HRSA-26-112, listed under CFDA (Assistance Listing) 93.688, and it falls under the Health funding activity category. HRSA anticipates making a single award, with an award ceiling of $3,000,000, indicating a relatively large, centralized project intended to have broad reach or national-level impact rather than multiple smaller regional awards.

Eligibility is broad and unrestricted: any domestic public or private entity may apply, including nonprofit and for-profit organizations. “Domestic” is defined expansively to include not only the 50 states and the District of Columbia, but also Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Freely Associated States (the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau). This wide eligibility suggests HRSA is prioritizing reach across diverse geographies, including territories and Pacific jurisdictions that often face unique access and resource challenges.

Key dates indicate the opportunity was created on June 18, 2026, and the original application closing date is July 20, 2026. Overall, MHEMT is structured to support a comprehensive training and capacity-building effort that equips non-obstetric and low-resource settings to respond effectively to maternal emergencies, improving the quality and consistency of care for pregnant and postpartum patients wherever they enter the healthcare system.
