About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health is soliciting applications for its Embryo Adoption Awareness and Services program to increase public awareness of embryo adoption as a method of family building and provide medical and administrative services to individuals adopting embryos, with applications due July 10, 2026.
Eligible applicants include public agencies, nonprofit organizations (501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)), for-profit organizations, higher education institutions (public and private), state and local governments, county governments, special district governments, city and township governments, tribal governments (federally recognized and organizations not federally recognized), public or Indian housing authorities, independent school districts, and other entity types. Only entities, not individuals, may apply. The source does not specify cost share or matching requirements.
Awards are structured as grants with support recommended not to exceed five years, generally made in 12-month budget periods with continuation awards contingent upon satisfactory performance, availability of funds, and demonstrated alignment with government interests. Historical awards under CFDA 93.007 have ranged from approximately $82,000 to $2.1 million. The source does not specify the expected number of awards for this cycle or a ceiling for individual awards.
The program funds both public awareness campaigns through traditional and digital media channels and service delivery to facilitate embryo adoption and donation. An independent merit review panel of experts from academic institutions, nonprofits, state and local governments, and federal agencies will evaluate applications that pass initial screening and responsiveness review. Federal staff will also review each application for programmatic, budgetary, risk, and grants management compliance. Final award recommendations are made by the program office head to the Grants Management Officer; award decisions are final and may not be appealed.
The Assistance Listing number is 93.007.
