About the company
The Council Of Parent Attorneys And Advocates, Inc. (operating as Copaa), a Maryland-based nonprofit organization, serves as a sub-recipient on federal research grants focused on disability advocacy and family caregiver support, with all recent activity channeled through Vanderbilt University as the prime grantee on awards from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living.
Copaa operates exclusively in a sub-recipient capacity on grant awards—zero prime contracts, zero IDVs, 100% sub-recipient positioning across its recent federal footprint. The organization's role centers on research execution around advocacy programming for individuals with disabilities and family caregivers from marginalized backgrounds, including conducting national surveys and interviews, finalizing advocacy program design, piloting the program, and supporting randomized controlled trial execution under Vanderbilt's principal investigator leadership.
All three recent awards funnel through a single customer: HHS Administration for Community Living. The combined federal obligation across all awards stands at $163 thousand. Activity is nascent—one award in 2024, two awards in the first half of 2026—with sub-award dates of December 5, 2024, March 27, 2026, and June 12, 2026. The three awards appear to represent either phased tranches of a single multi-year program or successive iterations of related research initiatives, given the identical scope language across all three sub-award descriptions and the consistent Vanderbilt prime relationship. Copaa carries no contract vehicles, no IDV seats, and no prime awardee history in the source data. The vendor's federal footprint is grant-research-focused rather than contracting-focused, positioning it as a research-execution partner for university-led initiatives in disability policy and advocacy rather than as a federal contractor in the traditional sense.
