Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "PPHF 2014 National Falls Prevention Resource Center Financed Solely by 2014 Prevention and Public Health Funds (PPHF 2014)," was released by the Administration on Aging (AoA) within the Administration for Community Living (ACL), a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is a discretionary funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency expected to have an active partnership role with the selected recipient rather than simply issuing funds with minimal involvement. The activity category is listed under Income Security and Social Services, and the related CFDA number is 93.761, which is associated with evidence based falls prevention programs supported by the Prevention and Public Health Fund.
The program planned to make a single award for a two year project period. Funding was set at approximately $400,000 for Year 1, with a second year at approximately $400,000 contingent on the availability of funds. The estimated total funding for the initial year was $400,000, and both the award floor and ceiling were listed as $400,000, which effectively signaled a fixed award amount for the first year. No cost sharing or matching requirement was included, so applicants were not required to provide non federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The opportunity was posted on June 23, 2014, with applications due by July 29, 2014 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, and it was archived on August 1, 2014.
The core purpose of the award was to establish and support a National Falls Prevention Resource Center. The center was expected to operate in a collaborative way on behalf of the general public, the aging services network, and other relevant stakeholders involved in senior health and community services. The announcement emphasized two major goals. The first goal was to increase public education about fall risks and practical ways to prevent falls, recognizing that falls are a major cause of injury and loss of independence among older adults. The second goal was to support and stimulate the implementation and dissemination of evidence based community programs and strategies that have been proven to reduce falls among seniors. In other words, the center was not simply meant to raise awareness, but also to help expand the real world reach of programs with demonstrated effectiveness, encouraging broader adoption, consistent delivery, and wider availability across communities.
Eligibility was broadly open to domestic public or private nonprofit entities. Examples explicitly listed include state and local governments, Indian tribal governments and organizations, faith based organizations, community based organizations, hospitals, and institutions of higher education. At the same time, the announcement clearly excluded individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorships from eligibility. The expectation was that the selected organization would have the capacity to function at a national level as a resource hub, supporting multiple audiences such as community implementers, aging network partners, and other organizations interested in scaling proven falls prevention approaches.
This opportunity was financed solely through the 2014 Prevention and Public Health Funds (PPHF 2014), meaning the funds were drawn specifically from that prevention focused federal funding stream rather than general appropriations. For applicants or interested parties seeking the full announcement details at the time, ACL provided an additional information link through its funding opportunities page, and the point of contact listed for access issues was Michele Boutaugh at Michele.Boutaugh@acl.hhs.gov.
