About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funded the ARRA Health Careers Opportunity Program (Assistance Listing 93.416), a capacity-building initiative for students from economically and educationally disadvantaged backgrounds seeking entry into health professions, allied health professions, behavioral and mental health graduate programs, and physician assistant training. The most recent grant award under this program was made on May 26, 2011, over fifteen years ago.
This program is no longer active. Only three Project Grants totaling $2.3 million in federal dollars were awarded under the ARRA funding authority, all between September 2009 and May 2011. No grant opportunities have been posted recently, and no awards have been disbursed since 2011. The program was established as a time-limited initiative under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and has exhausted its funding allocation.
The three awards funded health career pathway and workforce development activities at different institutions. Award amounts ranged from $524,896 to $976,747. The largest award, $976,747, was made on September 1, 2009 and supported activities through August 31, 2012. A second award of $766,608, also dated September 1, 2009, ran through May 25, 2011. The most recent award of $524,896, dated May 26, 2011, was designed to conclude by August 31, 2012.
All funding was administered by HRSA exclusively. The assistance-type portfolio consisted entirely of Project Grants with no Cooperative Agreements or other assistance mechanisms present.
Organizations should not pursue this program. The ARRA funding stream expired years ago, and no current solicitations exist.
