Opportunity Summary:
The Womens Health Cooperative Agreement Violence Against Women Pilot Program was a competitive federal funding opportunity led by the Indian Health Service (IHS) in partnership with the Office of Clinical and Preventive Services (OCPS) Division of Nursing (DON) Womens Health and the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The goal of the pilot program was to strengthen how participating health programs identify and respond to violence against women, using clinical screening and related service improvements as the main way to demonstrate impact. While ACF was involved in planning and co-funding through an inter-agency agreement administered by IHS, IHS served as the lead agency responsible for running the announcement and overseeing awards.
This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the funder expects an active role in the project beyond simply issuing funds (for example, providing guidance, coordination support, or collaboration during implementation). It was authorized under the Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13) and Section 301a of the Public Health Service Act, and it was listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance under CFDA 93.933, Demonstration Projects for Indian Health. The activity category was health, and the program was structured as a pilot or demonstration effort intended to improve real-world practice in a measurable way.
A key feature of this grant was how outcomes were measured. Instead of requiring applicants to create new reporting systems or additional local data collection, the impact of the program was intended to be assessed through improvement in the grantees Domestic Violence Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) screening measure. In other words, success was tied to better performance on an existing federal clinical performance metric related to domestic violence screening, reducing the administrative burden and focusing effort on improving screening rates and related processes of care.
In terms of scale and funding details, IHS expected to make up to 9 awards. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) was $25,000, with no stated minimum (award floor listed as $0). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowered barriers for applicants that may not have had access to non-federal matching funds. Eligibility was not fully specified in the summary text and was instead described as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," with a note that applicants needed to consult the full announcement for exact eligibility rules.
The opportunity was posted on August 4, 2008, and the application deadline (original and current closing date) was August 26, 2008. The archive date was September 25, 2008, indicating the opportunity is no longer open. The official funding opportunity number was HHS 2008 IHS PHN 0002, and the administering agency was the Indian Health Service. For applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically, the listed contact was Michelle Bulls, Grants Policy, reachable by phone at 301-443-6290 or by email at Michelle.Bulls@ihs.gov.
