Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 17 088
The State Public Health Coordinating Center for Autism grant opportunity (HRSA 17-088) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), specifically HRSA's Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) and its Division of State and Community Health (DSCH). The main purpose is to fund a single Coordinating Center that can provide national-level support to all 50 states and nine U.S. jurisdictions as they build, strengthen, and sustain statewide systems of care for infants, children, and adolescents who have autism spectrum disorders (ASD) or are at risk for ASD, as well as other developmental disabilities (DD). The overall emphasis is on improving health outcomes by making state systems more coordinated and effective, rather than funding direct clinical services in one location.
In practical terms, the Coordinating Center is intended to function as a hub that helps state public health agencies and partners learn from each other and implement proven approaches. A major responsibility is to work closely with the existing network of "State Autism Awardees," which includes current recipients of the Innovation in Care Integration for Children and Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders and Other Developmental Disabilities program (HRSA-16-048), that program's associated learning community, and the earlier cohort of State Autism Awardees funded under HRSA 12-131. The Coordinating Center is expected to connect these state efforts, amplify what is working, and help states translate emerging practices into repeatable strategies that can be adopted across different systems and populations.
The opportunity also makes it clear that collaboration is broader than just the State Autism Awardees. The Coordinating Center is expected to engage Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (CYSHCN) organizations, other HRSA autism-related investment awardees, family-led organizations, and key Maternal and Child Health (MCH) partners. In addition, the work is meant to align with and support state Title V MCH and CYSHCN programs, since those programs are central to how many states plan, finance, and coordinate services for children with special health care needs. The underlying goal across these partnerships is system-building: making sure state infrastructures support families and providers in navigating services, closing gaps, and maintaining improvements over time.
The core outcomes HRSA is pushing are earlier and more timely identification, diagnosis, referral, and treatment for children and youth with ASD and other DD. That means the Coordinating Center's activities should help states improve how children are screened and identified, how quickly they can obtain diagnostic evaluations, how efficiently they are referred to appropriate services and supports, and how consistently they can access effective interventions. Because the award is structured as a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial federal involvement in shaping priorities, coordinating activities, and monitoring progress, which is typical when the funder wants active collaboration and alignment across a national initiative.
Eligibility for this funding includes Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments) and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status that are not institutions of higher education, along with other applicants as allowed by the opportunity's additional eligibility instructions. HRSA anticipated making one award under this announcement. The opportunity was created on December 21, 2016, with an original application deadline of February 17, 2017. The published award ceiling is listed as 0 in the provided source data, which usually signals that applicants must consult the full notice for budget expectations or that the ceiling was not specified in the summary fields, but the intent is still to fund a single entity to carry out the national coordinating role.
In short, this grant is designed to establish one central, state-facing coordinating organization that strengthens public health and Title V systems nationwide so that children and youth with ASD and other developmental disabilities are identified earlier, connected to care faster, and served through more integrated, sustainable statewide systems of care.Apply for HRSA 17 088
