Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity (HRSA-14-111) is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) discretionary grant under the Health Center Program authorized by Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254b). It is a Service Area Competition Additional Area (SAC AA) announcement, meaning HRSA is seeking applicants to operate and provide ongoing operational support for health center services in specifically identified service areas where HRSA has determined there is a need for Health Center Program-supported care. The announced areas covered by this FOA are Evergreen, Alabama; Gualala, California; Tallahassee, Florida; Nashua, New Hampshire; Waxahachie, Texas; and Kenosha, Wisconsin. HRSA expects to make six awards total, which generally aligns with one award per service area, although final award decisions depend on application quality, eligibility, and other federal considerations described in the FOA.

At its core, the opportunity is meant to expand or ensure access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care for underserved and vulnerable populations. HRSA describes the Health Center Program as a national network that, at the time of the announcement, funded around 1,200 health centers operating nearly 9,000 service delivery sites across all states and multiple territories. The program is designed to reach medically underserved communities and people facing barriers to care, including uninsured patients and other vulnerable groups. Applicants under SAC AA are competing to become the Section 330-supported provider for an announced service area, with the expectation that they will deliver patient-directed, community-based services and meet federal health center requirements tied to scope of services, governance, and performance accountability.

The FOA allows applicants to propose operations under one or more of the major Section 330 health center categories, depending on the needs of the service area and the applicant’s proposed project: Community Health Center (CHC, Section 330(e)), Migrant Health Center (MHC, Section 330(g)), Health Care for the Homeless (HCH, Section 330(h)), and Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC, Section 330(i)). In plain terms, applicants are not limited to a single “model” of health center support; rather, they can propose a project that fits the target population(s) within the announced geography, as long as it aligns with HRSA’s eligibility rules and Health Center Program expectations.

Funding for the opportunity is listed at an estimated total of $7,233,370 across all awards, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The listing shows award ceiling and floor as $0, which typically indicates the specific per-award amounts are not expressed as fixed minimums or maximums in the summary data and instead are determined through HRSA’s award calculations and the approved project/budget in the full FOA. The assistance listing is under CFDA 93.224 (Consolidated Health Centers), which is the standard federal program identifier for these Section 330 health center grants.

A wide range of applicant types are identified as eligible in the opportunity synopsis, reflecting the program’s flexibility in who can operate a federally supported health center as long as they meet the Health Center Program’s statutory and FOA-specific requirements. Eligible applicants include public and nonprofit entities such as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), city/county/state governments, special district governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations, and public or private institutions of higher education, among others. The synopsis repeatedly emphasizes that applicants must meet all eligibility requirements laid out in the FOA (noted as being on pages 4 and 5), which is important because Health Center Program eligibility commonly includes specific organizational, governance, service delivery, and service area requirements that go beyond simply being an eligible entity type.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted on November 20, 2013, with an original and current closing date of December 20, 2013, and an archive date of February 18, 2014. The funding instrument is a grant, the activity category is health, and the opportunity category is discretionary. For organizations that needed help accessing the full announcement or submitting, HRSA directed applicants to the HRSA Grants Application Center and the HRSA Call Center (877-464-4772) and provided the email address CallCenter@HRSA.GOV, reflecting that HRSA expected applicants to rely on the full FOA for the detailed requirements, review criteria, and awarding factors that govern how applications are scored and how final award decisions are made.
