Opportunity Summary:
The Part C EIS Categorical Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-008, CFDA 93.918) is a discretionary grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) designed to support ongoing, outpatient early intervention and primary care services for people living with HIV. The program is meant to strengthen the broader continuum of HIV prevention and care by helping individuals who are HIV-positive, as well as supporting entry into care for people at risk of infection. In practice, the grant is focused on ensuring patients can access timely clinical services, stay connected to care, and receive a set of core supports that address common medical and behavioral health needs alongside HIV treatment.
Funded Early Intervention Services (EIS) programs are expected to deliver a defined set of outpatient services. These include HIV counseling and testing (with associated counseling), education on living with HIV, and appropriate medical evaluation and clinical care. The opportunity also emphasizes “essential services” that often determine whether patients can successfully engage in treatment over time, such as oral health care, outpatient mental health services, outpatient substance use services, and nutritional services. In addition to what the grantee provides directly, programs must ensure patients receive appropriate referrals for specialty services when needs extend beyond the clinic’s scope. Overall, the service model is intended to be comprehensive, practical, and patient-centered, with the goal of improving early linkage to care and maintaining consistent engagement in outpatient HIV primary care.
A central policy priority in this funding is reducing disparities in HIV outcomes by expanding access to high-quality HIV primary care and support services for communities of color. The announcement highlights the role of the Minority AIDS Initiative in increasing the ability to fund indigenous organizations and other providers serving communities of color, particularly those able to deliver culturally and linguistically appropriate services. Funding preferences are established for organizations that serve communities of color that are highly affected by HIV/AIDS, reflecting an explicit effort to improve care quality and reduce gaps in health outcomes across populations.
The opportunity anticipated making about 73 awards, with an estimated total funding level of $30,627,505. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, which generally means applicants are not required to contribute a specific non-federal share of project costs as a condition of the award. The posting date was August 4, 2009, with an original and current closing date of October 16, 2009, and an archive date of December 14, 2009.
Eligibility is limited and targeted. Eligible entities include public or private nonprofit organizations, and the announcement lists several examples: Federally Qualified Health Centers, Title X family planning agencies (other than states), Rural Health Clinics, Indian Health Service facilities (or those operated under contract), community-based organizations, clinics, hospitals, and other health facilities providing EIS to people infected through intravenous drug use, as well as nonprofit private entities that provide comprehensive primary care to populations at risk for HIV, including faith-based and community-based organizations. However, the applicant pool is restricted primarily to currently funded Part C programs whose project periods were expiring March 31, 2010 or June 30, 2010, plus new organizations seeking to replace an existing grantee. Replacement applicants must show they will continue serving the existing patients and maintain the same populations, service scope, and service areas currently served by the organization being replaced. The announcement includes a long list of eligible service areas tied to expiring projects, spanning multiple states and counties (examples shown include areas in Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Washington, DC, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky), indicating the competition is structured around maintaining continuity of care in specific geographic coverage areas rather than opening a nationwide competition with fully flexible service locations.
For applicants or interested parties who needed the full announcement or had access issues, HRSA directed them to the HRSA Call Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV) and provided phone contact options, and the opportunity referenced an additional information link hosted on the HRSA grants site.
