Assistance Payments – Research

The Department of Health and Human Services Immediate Office of the Secretary awarded the last grant under CFDA 93.022 (Assistance Payments_Research) on October 1, 2006—twenty years ago. No grant awards have been disbursed since that date, and no recent grant opportunities are documented in the system.

The program funded community-based health interventions targeting obesity and diabetes prevention in young women, as evidenced by the six block grants awarded in 2006. These awards supported projects titled "Targeting Obesity in Young Women to Prevent Diabetes" (across multiple iterations) and "Healthy Families Start with You," with individual grant values of $50,000 each. All six 2006 awards obligated a combined federal total of $300 thousand and carried project completion dates of February 29, 2008.

The assistance-type mix was exclusively Block Grants—all six awards in the documented portfolio. The sole funding source was the Department of Health and Human Services Immediate Office of the Secretary.

Given the two-decade gap since the last recorded disbursement and the absence of any recent grant opportunities in the active pipeline, this program does not appear to be actively soliciting applications. Any organization considering pursuit under CFDA 93.022 should verify current funding status and solicitation availability directly with the HHS Immediate Office of the Secretary before investing business development resources.
