Opportunity Summary:
The Ryan White Part A HIV Emergency Relief Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-062; CFDA 93.914) is a federal grant program administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to support comprehensive HIV medical care and related services in the areas of the country most heavily affected by HIV. It is authorized under Part A of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Modernization Act and is designed to help Eligible Metropolitan Areas (EMAs) and Transitional Grant Areas (TGAs) build and maintain coordinated systems of care for people living with HIV. The program is specifically focused on serving people who are low income, medically underserved, and more likely to be uninsured or underinsured, with the overall goal of improving access to treatment and supporting a continuum of care that helps people with HIV stay healthy and engaged in services over time.
At the service level, Part A funds are used to support a structured local system that delivers primary HIV medical care, improves access to antiretroviral therapies, and covers a set of core medical services alongside additional supportive services that help clients remain connected to care. The opportunity description emphasizes that grantees fund a system of care capable of delivering 13 core medical services, with other support services allowed as part of a broader strategy to reduce barriers to treatment, improve health outcomes, and address gaps that can prevent consistent care. In practice, this funding is intended to strengthen local HIV service delivery networks, coordinate providers, and ensure that essential medical and support services are available to the people most at risk of falling out of care due to cost, access limitations, or other structural barriers.
Funding under Part A is awarded through a combination of formula-based and competitive components. More than 66 percent of available funds are distributed by formula, primarily based on estimates of living HIV cases (non-AIDS) and AIDS cases within the EMA or TGA. This approach directs the majority of funding toward jurisdictions with higher documented HIV burden. The remaining funds, after accounting for items such as hold harmless provisions and Minority AIDS Initiative (MAI) amounts, are awarded as discretionary supplemental grants. Those supplemental awards are competed separately and are based on an applicant area demonstrating additional needs beyond what the formula funding covers, which creates an avenue for jurisdictions with significant unmet need or unique service challenges to seek extra support.
This particular funding opportunity was categorized as discretionary and used the grant funding instrument type within the federal health funding activity category. HRSA anticipated 52 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $671,075,000. The posting timeline included a posted date of August 16, 2010, with an original closing date of October 18, 2010, later reflected as October 19, 2010, and an archive date of November 12, 2010. The program did not require cost sharing or matching, which means applicants were not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving funds.
Eligibility was limited to jurisdictions that were already classified as an EMA or TGA in 2010 and that continued to meet statutory eligibility requirements. The announcement ties eligibility to HIV/AIDS incidence and prevalence thresholds based on CDC-confirmed surveillance data. For EMAs, eligibility depends on exceeding a specified AIDS case threshold (described as more than 2,000 AIDS cases during the most recent available multi-year reporting period). For TGAs, eligibility depends on meeting a lower threshold and remaining below the EMA level (described as at least 500 but fewer than 2,000 AIDS cases, reflecting the transitional nature of TGAs). The opportunity also describes statutory "savings provisions" that allow areas to retain eligibility even if they fall below the usual thresholds, as long as they have not fallen below the required incidence levels for three consecutive years and they continue to meet specified prevalence levels based on the cumulative number of living AIDS cases as of December 31 of the most recent year with available data. Under these prevalence levels, EMAs are tied to 3,000 living AIDS cases and TGAs to 1,500 living AIDS cases. Jurisdictions are notified by letter when they qualify for eligibility under these savings provisions, which signals that HRSA actively manages and communicates changes in eligibility status based on surveillance trends.
For applicants and stakeholders looking for official documentation or assistance accessing the full announcement, HRSA provided an additional information link through its grants portal and directed users to the HRSA Call Center for support, including email and phone contact options.
