Federal Grant Award Summary

The State of Wisconsin Department of Health Services received a $535,932 formula grant award from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families under the Title V State Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) Program (CFDA 93.235). The award was obligated on October 1, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2027. Under this two-year grant, Wisconsin will develop and implement prevention education programming targeted to youth ages 10 to 19 that promotes healthy decision-making and normalizes avoiding non-marital sexual activity and other risky behaviors.

The Title V State SRAE program operates as a formula-based allocation distributed to all states and U.S. territories according to predetermined statutory criteria rather than competitive selection. Wisconsin's funded activities support youth development through evidence-based prevention education strategies aligned with federal guidelines. As a formula grant recipient, the state is required to maintain detailed program records in accordance with 45 CFR Part 75 and may sub-award portions of funding to local public health departments, county governments, and community-based service providers to implement prevention initiatives at the community level.
