About this opportunity

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is forecasting applications for Family-to-Family Health Information Centers (F2F HIC), which provide information, education, technical assistance, and peer support to families of children and youth with special health care needs (CYSHCN), with no current application deadline posted.

Eligible applicants include any domestic public or private entity, including domestic faith-based and community-based organizations, Indian tribes, and tribal organizations, provided they operate within the 50 states, District of Columbia, five U.S. territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, U.S. Virgin Islands), or serve American Indian and Alaska Native tribes. Applicants must demonstrate existing family-staffed or family-run governance, existing and effective fiduciary, administrative, and management systems, and a focus on health for the broad CYSHCN population—not condition-specific, education-focused, or disability-focused programs. A different fiduciary agency (such as a university) may be involved, but activities must remain family-staffed throughout the grant period.

Historical award data shows the program has distributed 80 Project Grants totaling $92.7 million since 1988, with recent 2022 awards ranging from approximately $700 thousand to $988 thousand. The most recent posted opportunity (HRSA-22-069, due January 5, 2022) solicited one F2F HIC in each of the 50 states, District of Columbia, and five territories, plus up to three centers serving American Indians and Alaska Natives. Final funding decisions are rendered 4 to 6 months after application receipt. After initial competitive awards, grantees may receive noncompetitive continuation funding contingent on progress reports and continued federal interest. The Assistance Listing number is 93.504.

Forecast synopsis

The purpose of this program is to provide information, education, technical assistance, and peer support to families of children and youth with special health care needs (CYSHCN) and the professionals who serve them so that CYSHCN and their families can better navigate complex systems to receive needed services and improve their health and well-being.

Eligibility

Eligible applicants include any domestic public or private entity. Domestic faith-based and community-based organizations, tribes, and tribal organizations are eligible to apply. Eligibility for this funding opportunity is limited to applicants within the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the five U.S. Territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands and the U.S. Virgin Islands) and entities that will serve American Indian and/or Alaska Native tribes.
