Federal Grant Award Summary

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services received a $3.1 million Formula Grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families under the Title V State Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) Program (CFDA 93.235) effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027. This award supports the development and implementation of prevention education programming targeting youth ages 10 to 19 throughout Michigan, with messaging designed to normalize avoiding non-marital sexual activity and associated risky behaviors.

As Michigan's designated state administrator for the Title V State SRAE Program, MDHHS will deliver evidence-based prevention education services and coordinate program implementation across state and local service delivery networks. The formula-based allocation reflects Michigan's state population and demographics within the national Title V SRAE program structure. Funds will support curricula development, educator training, program evaluation, and youth-focused educational initiatives aligned with federal prevention education standards. Michigan's allocation remains available for expenditure through the end of the succeeding fiscal year (September 30, 2028), with MDHHS required to submit an updated state plan and letter of intent for continued funding in subsequent fiscal years absent material programmatic changes.
