About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (ACF) funds training programs that equip health center staff to provide adoption information and referrals to pregnant women as part of non-directive counseling, under Assistance Listing 93.254; the most recent grant award was disbursed on September 30, 2012.
This program is not currently active. No grant awards have been made in the past 13 years, and no recent grant opportunities are posted. The program's last award was the AdoptUSKids Project Grant (90CQ0003) for $18.3 million, a multi-year initiative that ran through September 2017. Prior activity shows concentrated award cycles around September 30 in 2006, 2007, 2011, and 2012, with sporadic awards in other years dating back to 2001. Over its lifetime, the program made 37 awards totaling $106.3 million in federal dollars obligated.
The program has funded two distinct tracks: regional or institution-based infant adoption awareness training programs for health centers and staff, and the national AdoptUSKids initiative, a multi-year cooperative effort to build adoption referral capacity. Representative awards include the $3.03 million Infant Adoption Awareness Program Project Grant (90CG2657) in 2006 and multiple smaller regional training initiatives awarded at $300 thousand to $2.3 million per award in 2011 and 2006.
Funding comes exclusively from ACF. Project Grants account for 78 percent of awards (29), with Cooperative Agreements representing 19 percent (7) and a single Block Grant comprising the remaining 3 percent. Award magnitudes for individual training initiatives typically ranged from $300 thousand to $3 million, while the flagship AdoptUSKids awards exceeded $14 million each.
Pursuit of this program is not advised without confirmation of current program status and reopened solicitation. The 13-year funding hiatus and lack of posted opportunities suggest the program may be inactive or has been superseded or consolidated into other ACF funding lines.
