Opportunity Summary:
Part C Capacity Development (HRSA-09-129) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to help eligible nonprofit organizations build the internal strength they need to deliver stronger HIV care. The core aim is not simply to fund direct services, but to improve an organization s infrastructure and operational capacity so it can develop, enhance, or expand high quality outpatient HIV primary health care. The opportunity is especially focused on reaching people who often face the greatest barriers to consistent care, specifically individuals in rural areas, urban underserved areas, and communities of color. In practice, this means the grant is meant to help organizations become better equipped to offer an organized, high quality continuum of outpatient HIV primary care through the applicant agency itself, rather than outsourcing the work or supporting unrelated activities.
The program expects applicants to propose targeted capacity building activities that lead to real, practical improvements in how HIV primary care is delivered. The emphasis on a comprehensive continuum of outpatient services signals that HRSA is looking for organizations that can support patients across the course of HIV care, including the structures and systems that make care accessible, coordinated, and sustainable. While the announcement does not list specific allowable activities in the text provided, capacity development funding in this context typically aligns with strengthening clinic operations, care coordination processes, service integration, quality improvement systems, workforce development, clinical protocols, data and reporting capacity, and other foundational pieces that improve a clinic s ability to deliver consistent HIV primary care. A key limitation is that these funds are not intended for long term activities, so proposals should be framed as time limited, catalytic investments that build lasting capability rather than ongoing program operations that would require indefinite support.
Funding for the opportunity was estimated at 1,000,000 in total, with an expected 10 awards, and it falls under CFDA 93.918, Grants to Provide Outpatient Early Intervention Services with Respect to HIV Disease. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier to entry for organizations that may not have large reserves or access to nonfederal matching funds. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health. The opportunity was posted on January 16, 2009, with an application closing date of March 16, 2009, and it was later archived on June 16, 2009.
Eligibility is limited to public or private nonprofit agencies, and the announcement is broad about the types of nonprofits that may apply as long as they fit the program purpose. Examples include Section 330 Consolidated Health Center Program entities (such as community health centers, migrant health centers, health care for the homeless programs, public housing primary care, and related healthy schools or healthy communities initiatives), family planning agencies funded under Section 1001 of the Public Health Service Act (other than states), comprehensive hemophilia diagnostic and treatment centers, federally qualified health centers as defined in Medicaid statute, nonprofit private entities already providing comprehensive primary care to populations at risk of HIV, local health departments, and university or medical center affiliated clinics. Faith based and community based organizations are also explicitly stated as eligible, as long as they meet the nonprofit and other eligibility conditions. Overall, the eligibility language is designed to include a wide range of safety net providers and community anchored organizations that are positioned to expand or strengthen outpatient HIV primary care in underserved settings.
