Grantees currently implementing a SAMHSA/CSAT TCE HIV grant that will extend past 9/29/2013 (excluding no cost extensions) are not eligible to apply. SAMHSA believes that in order to achieve the goals of this program to enhance infrastructure and capacity to improve the community s response to HIV/AIDS by increasing access to care and services for African American, Hispanic/Latina and other racial/ethnic minority women at high risk for or living with HIV/AIDS, grant funds must go directly to community based organizations, tribes and tribal organizations, and other eligible applicants listed above. Locally based organizations operating and providing services in areas traditionally underserved by governmental services have a proven track record of reaching minority populations and dealing with sensitive identity issues such as HIV status and perceived sexual orientation. Local organizations are also more likely to be managed by minorities living in the areas that have been targeted by this funding announcement. These organizations will be more predisposed to employ community residents and be staffed by peers of the clients seeking services. In addition, local organizations will have more representation on their Board of Directors and Community Advisory Councils of community leaders, both private and public. Governmental agencies would need excessive start up periods to physically locate service provisions in the affected communities. Therefore, state and local governments are not eligible to apply. The statutory authority for this program prohibits grants to for profit agencies.
