Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competition (SAC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-14-028) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to support the ongoing operation of health centers that serve underserved communities and vulnerable populations. The basic purpose is to ensure people in high-need areas can get comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care. In practical terms, this competition is aimed at funding organizations to provide operational support for an announced service area under the federal Health Center Program authorized by section 330 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as amended.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement invites applications from organizations seeking to operate one or more types of section 330 health center projects within a specific service area. The health center types included are Community Health Centers (CHC, section 330(e)), Migrant Health Centers (MHC, section 330(g)), Health Care for the Homeless (HCH, section 330(h)), and Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC, section 330(i)). HRSA uses the term "health center" in this announcement as a catch-all to cover any of these models, recognizing that each targets different populations but shares the same overall mission: delivering accessible primary care and related enabling services to groups who otherwise face significant barriers to care.
The SAC announcement lays out the rules for who can apply, what HRSA will look for during application review, and the factors that influence final award decisions. Applicants are expected to meet all eligibility requirements described in the FOA (specifically referenced as being on pages 4 and 5 of the full announcement). While the summary text here does not list those requirements in detail, the FOA is the controlling document for confirming eligibility, required documentation, and expectations for demonstrating capacity to serve the defined service area.
Eligibility is broad and includes many public and nonprofit entities, reflecting how health centers are often run through community-based governance structures or public partners. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); federally recognized tribal governments; and other tribal organizations (including those that are not federally recognized), along with other applicants as clarified in the FOA's additional eligibility language. The program does not require cost sharing or matching, which can lower the barrier for organizations that have strong service models but limited ability to contribute non-federal funds.
HRSA anticipated making about 78 awards under this opportunity. The associated CFDA number is 93.224, Consolidated Health Centers (Community Health Centers, Migrant Health Centers, Health Care for the Homeless, and Public Housing Primary Care). The posting date was June 13, 2013, and the application due date was January 8, 2014 (the same for original and current closing date). The opportunity has since been archived (archive date March 9, 2014). The listing shows an award floor and ceiling of 0, which typically indicates that award amounts are not expressed as fixed minimums or maximums in the summary record and that applicants should refer to the FOA and the specific service area announcement details for budget expectations and funding levels.
For applicants or interested parties who want the full official details, HRSA provided an additional information link to the full announcement and directs anyone who has trouble accessing it to contact the HRSA Call Center at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV or by phone at 877-464-4772 (877-Go4-HRSA).
