Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Technical Assistance for Substance Abuse Treatment Providers in Peru for At Risk Women and Adolescents" (Funding Opportunity Number INL 14CA0009 WHPPERU 03252014), was offered by the United States Government through the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), working via the U.S. Embassy in Lima. The purpose of the grant is to strengthen both outpatient and residential substance use disorder treatment services in Peru, with a specific focus on underserved and at-risk women and adolescents. The approach is not to directly replace Peru's health system, but to improve it by providing practical technical assistance and targeted training to the Peruvian health-sector institutions that are selected and identified by Peru's national drug policy bodies, specifically DEVIDA (the National Commission for Development and Life Without Drugs) and the Ministry of Health (MINSA). In other words, the funded organization is expected to help treatment providers improve their capacity, quality, and effectiveness in serving women and youth who face heightened vulnerability and barriers to care.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically signals a closer working relationship between the funder (INL) and the recipient than a standard grant. The activity category is listed under law, justice, and legal services, and it is tied to the counter-narcotics assistance CFDA number 19.704, reflecting an emphasis on reducing drug demand and related harms through treatment system strengthening. The opportunity anticipated up to 10 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $350,000. The award ceiling and floor are both stated as $350,000, which implies that the expected award amount for a selected project would be the full $350,000 rather than a range of possible budgets. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement noted, meaning applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility is limited strictly to local Peruvian entities. Only registered non-profit organizations or educational institutions based in Peru are allowed to apply, and the announcement makes clear that ONLY local, non-governmental organizations qualify. Applicants needed to be registered in Peru, or at minimum provide proof that they were in the process of seeking registration at the time they submitted their proposal, and they must comply with local legal requirements such as labor and tax laws. The solicitation explicitly excludes public international organizations and commercial firms, whether based in the United States or Peru, reinforcing that the grant is intended to build local capacity through local civil society or educational institutions rather than international implementers or for-profit contractors.
Beyond basic legal eligibility, applicants were expected to bring relevant programmatic experience. The opportunity sought Peruvian organizations with demonstrated work in demand reduction and related public health programming, including drug use prevention, early intervention, and treatment and rehabilitation, particularly for at-risk groups like women and youth. Preference is implied for organizations that have already implemented similar education, capacity-building, or community development initiatives in Peru, ideally in the same types of communities they propose to serve through this project. Applicants also needed to show that they could partner effectively with government stakeholders, especially DEVIDA and MINSA, along with non-governmental public health organizations and other relevant actors. Consortium applications were permitted, but one organization had to be designated as the lead applicant responsible for the combined proposal and overall performance.
The timeline for the opportunity reflects a 2014 application window. It was posted and created on March 26, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 2, 2014, and it was archived on June 1, 2014. Applicants were required to submit specific documents referenced in the Proposal Summary Instructions (PSI), which are mentioned as attached in the full announcement. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Cheryl Price, a Grants Management Specialist at the Department of State, reachable via DOS email as provided in the notice.
