About this opportunity
The Health Resources and Services Administration is soliciting applications for the Women's Initiative for Screening and Health (WISH) cooperative agreement to improve women's health across the lifespan by increasing access to preventive health services; this is a forecast with no stated application deadline.
WISH is open to a broad range of eligible applicant types, including state and local governments, tribal governments and organizations (both federally recognized and not federally recognized), higher education institutions (public and private), 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, for-profit organizations, small businesses, independent school districts, special district governments, and public or Indian housing authorities.
The program operates as a cooperative agreement funded under Special Projects of Regional and National Significance (SPRANS, CFDA 93.110). WISH advances three core objectives: review and recommend evidence-based updates to HRSA-supported women's preventive service guidelines, raise awareness and knowledge of those guidelines, and increase adoption and use of the guidelines in clinical practice. The strategy centers on multidisciplinary coalitions bringing together healthcare providers, academic institutions, and patient-centered organizations.
SPRANS awards typically run 2 to 5 years and may be followed by noncompetitive continuation awards contingent on satisfactory progress reports and fund availability. Final funding decisions issue 4 to 6 months after application receipt. Evaluation criteria vary by specific grant or cooperative agreement program and are detailed in the notice of funding opportunity. Nonfederal entities expending $1 million or more in federal awards annually must undergo single or program-specific audits; grantees must maintain accounting records for three years after submission of the Federal Financial Report.
