Opportunity Summary:

It is tied to CFDA 93.632, University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research, and Service, and is intended to support national training efforts that address critical and emerging needs in the developmental disabilities field. The announcement reflects a formal modification to the original program announcement that was posted May 5, 2008, with the modification created May 22, 2008, and it states that the corrected information replaces what appeared in the May 5, 2008 version.
The key purpose of this notice is not to introduce a brand-new competition, but to correct application and submission information in the published announcement. Specifically, the modification says that the content under Section IV.1, Application and Submission Information, for Priority Area 2 has changed. Applicants are instructed to delete the previously posted Priority Area 2 submission information in that section and replace it with updated instructions that identify the correct point of contact and address for requesting an application package. The updated contact is Shadetra Robinson at the Administration on Developmental Disabilities, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Mail Stop HHH, 405D, 370 LEnfant Promenade SW, Washington, DC 20447, phone (202) 690-7898, fax (202) 205-8037, email shadetra.robinson@acf.hhs.gov, with the related program URL listed as http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/add/index.html. The notice emphasizes that all information in the modification is accurate and supersedes the earlier version for the affected section.
In terms of funding, the opportunity anticipates making 2 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,600,000. The award ceiling is $800,000 and the award floor is also $800,000, indicating that each award is expected to be funded at roughly the same level. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning recipients must contribute non-federal resources according to the terms described in the full announcement. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the funding activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services.
Eligibility is narrowly limited by statute. Only entities designated as University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDDs) may apply. The legal authority cited is the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 (DD Act of 2000), Subtitle D, Sections 151(b) and 153(b), which authorizes grants for the federal share of the costs of these national training initiatives and defines the eligible applicant type. As a result, the competition is restricted to UCEDDs, and the notice indicates there were 67 UCEDD entities at the time; the announcement applies to those UCEDDs that were designated in their respective states and existed during the preceding fiscal year. Foreign entities are explicitly not eligible. The full announcement (including the referenced list of eligible applicants in Section III.3) is available through the additional information link provided in the notice.
Key dates include an original and current closing date of June 30, 2008, with an archive date of July 30, 2008. For applicants using Grants.gov, the notice highlights a firm electronic submission cutoff of no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Finally, for anyone unable to access the full announcement online, the notice directs them to contact Shadetra Robinson at shadetra.robinson@acf.hhs.gov for assistance and for obtaining the application package and updated submission details.
