Opportunity Summary:
The National Resource Center for Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (NRCCBCAP) funding opportunity is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). It was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency anticipated an active partnership with the recipient rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The announcement’s central goal was to fund one national entity to operate as a specialized resource center focused on strengthening the Community Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) Program across the country.
At its core, the opportunity was designed to build the capacity of CBCAP lead agencies and their partners to carry out the CBCAP program requirements effectively and consistently. The funded center would serve as the primary national provider of training and technical assistance (T/TA) for CBCAP, with an emphasis on helping agencies choose, implement, and sustain evidence-informed and evidence-based child maltreatment prevention programs and activities. The intent was not simply to provide information, but to help states and communities improve how prevention strategies are planned, executed, evaluated, and improved over time so that family support services and prevention efforts actually translate into stronger outcomes for children and families.
NRCCBCAP was also positioned as a member of the Children’s Bureau Training and Technical Assistance Network. That network exists to support states and tribes in making sustainable, systemic changes in child welfare and related systems, with the long-term outcomes framed around child safety, permanency, and well-being. In practice, this means the resource center was expected to align its assistance with broader child welfare system improvement priorities, coordinate with other national T/TA providers, and help CBCAP leaders integrate prevention work with the larger continuum of child- and family-serving systems.
A major functional expectation in the announcement was that the center would support CBCAP lead agencies in planning and developing an interdisciplinary, community-based network of programs and activities. The focus here is prevention through strengthening families and community supports before abuse or neglect occurs. The resource center’s role would include helping jurisdictions develop partnerships across disciplines (for example, public health, early childhood, behavioral health, education, domestic violence services, housing supports, and child welfare) and ensuring those partnerships are organized in a way that expands reach, improves coordination, and reduces fragmentation. Another explicit emphasis was promoting stronger linkages with child welfare and other child and family systems, so that prevention efforts are connected to the real-world pathways families use to access help.
In terms of basic award details, the opportunity anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $1,400,000 and an award ceiling of $1,400,000 (no award floor was specified). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number associated with the program was 93.590, Community Based Child Abuse Prevention Grants, and the funding activity category was listed as Income Security and Social Services.
Eligibility was broad and included public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (both with and without 501(c)(3) status), and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The announcement explicitly allowed collaborative applications and interdisciplinary approaches, but required that any collaboration designate a primary applicant that would be responsible for administering the cooperative agreement. Faith-based and community organizations were eligible, while foreign entities were not eligible to apply.
Key dates show this was a time-limited competition posted on March 27, 2009, with an application due date of May 26, 2009. Applications submitted through Grants.gov were required to be submitted no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date. The announcement later moved into archive status on June 25, 2009. For access issues related to the full announcement, applicants were directed to the ACF Applications Help Desk (appsupport@acf.hhs.gov).
