Opportunity Summary:
The MCH Research Network Programs opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-163) is a discretionary grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), through its Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB). It uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, meaning the award is designed as an active partnership between the federal program and the recipient rather than a hands-off grant. In practical terms, the recipient would lead the work of building and operating the network, while MCHB expects to have substantial scientific and/or programmatic involvement during the project period, with the details of that involvement spelled out in the application guidance.
The purpose of the award is to establish and maintain an MCH Life Course Health Development Research Network. The network is intended to push forward public health research focused on maternal and child health (MCH) through a life course lens, emphasizing how health develops over time and across stages of life. The central research themes highlighted in the announcement include epidemiology, the social determinants of health, and the origins and impacts of health disparities. The emphasis on disparities signals that the network is expected to look beyond clinical factors and examine structural, social, and environmental drivers that shape health outcomes for mothers, infants, children, and families, including how inequities emerge early and compound over time.
Funding for this opportunity is relatively small and targeted, consistent with supporting a coordinated network function rather than a large portfolio of separate projects. HRSA anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000 and an award ceiling of $150,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The activity category is listed as Health, and the program is associated with CFDA number 93.110 (Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs), which generally reflects MCHB investments in systems, services, and related research infrastructure that inform maternal and child health policy and practice.
Eligibility is limited by regulation (cited as 42 CFR Part 51a.3(b)). Eligible applicants include public and nonprofit institutions of higher learning, as well as public or private nonprofit agencies engaged in research or programs relating to maternal and child health and/or services for children with special health care needs. The notice also clarifies that, if they meet the underlying eligibility requirements, faith-based and community organizations may apply, and tribes and tribal organizations may apply as well, provided they satisfy all other eligibility conditions described in the guidance. This eligibility framing points toward applicants that can credibly convene partners, manage a research network, and contribute relevant expertise in MCH and life course health development.
Key dates included a posted date of May 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2010, and an archive date of August 13, 2010, indicating the announcement is historical rather than currently open. Applicants and interested parties were directed to HRSA support channels for access issues, including the HRSA Call Center and the email address CallCenter@HRSA.GOV, and an additional information link was provided through the HRSA grants site.
