Opportunity Summary:
The National HIV Training and Technical Assistance Cooperative Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 11 068) is a discretionary grant program from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) focused on strengthening the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program by building the skills, capacity, and effectiveness of the organizations and people involved in HIV care. The overall goal is to fund a small group of organizations to deliver coordinated training and hands-on technical assistance that helps Ryan White grantees, frontline providers, and consumers improve both access to services and the quality of HIV clinical care and related support services, with a particular emphasis on reaching underserved people living with HIV.
This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than functioning only as a funder. In practical terms, awardees are typically expected to work closely with HRSA to align training and technical assistance activities with national Ryan White priorities, respond to evolving needs in the field, and coordinate efforts across multiple organizations so support is not duplicated and gaps are addressed.
HRSA anticipated making 5 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,400,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The funding is tied to CFDA 93.145 (AIDS Education and Training Centers), which signals an emphasis on education, workforce development, and practical support strategies that can be implemented in real-world HIV service settings.
Eligible applicants include public entities and nonprofit private entities, as well as schools and academic health science centers. The announcement also explicitly notes that faith-based and community-based organizations are eligible to apply, reflecting an intent to include organizations that are often closely connected to affected communities and may be well positioned to reach underserved populations. The eligibility language suggests HRSA was seeking organizations with the infrastructure and subject matter expertise to deliver training at scale, provide technical assistance that is actionable, and support the Ryan White system of care across different jurisdictions and provider types.
The program purpose centers on providing support to three main audiences: grantees (the organizations receiving Ryan White funds), providers (clinicians and service organizations delivering HIV medical care and supportive services), and consumers (people living with HIV and community members who use or engage with Ryan White-funded services). While the announcement summary does not list every priority area in detail, it clearly frames the work around improving access and quality, especially for underserved people with HIV. That typically involves activities such as developing and delivering training curricula, offering targeted technical assistance to improve service delivery and program performance, spreading best practices, helping organizations implement evidence-informed approaches, and supporting quality improvement efforts so that clinical and supportive services are more consistent, effective, and equitable.
Key dates in the public notice include a posted and creation date of March 18, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 18, 2011, and an archive date of June 17, 2011. The listing includes an additional information link to the HRSA grants page where the full announcement was hosted, and it provides HRSA Call Center contact information for applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and the HRSA call-in numbers).
