Abstinence Education Program Grant Opportunity

[40 Pa.B. 5252]
[Saturday, September 11, 2010]

 The Department of Health (Dpartment) has submitted part one of a two-part grant application to the Administration for Children and Families in the United States Department of Health and Human Services for the Title V Abstinence Education Program for states for Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2010. Part one, the Application for Funding, was submitted for the August 30, 2010, deadline, and part two, the Post-Award State Plan, is to be submitted by December 10, 2010.

 The Abstinence Education Program (Program) was extended through FY 2014 under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Pub. L. No. 111-148). The purpose of the Program is to enable the state to provide abstinence education, and at the option of the state, when appropriate, mentoring, counseling and adult supervision to promote abstinence from sexual activity, with a focus on those groups which are most likely to bear children out of wedlock. The Administration for Children and Families in the United States Department of Health and Human Services published the new Program grant guidance for Federal FY 2010, which can be found at http://www.acf.hhs.gov/grants/open/foa/view/HHS-2010-ACF-ACYF-AEGP-0123. There are several significant changes in the grant guidance published for Federal FY 2010.

 The Department plans to issue a Request for Application (RFA) for institutions and organizations in this Commonwealth as part of the Department's application for Abstinence Education grant funds to the United States Department of Health and Human Services. When released, the Department's RFA, along with any supporting documentation, will be posted at http://www.emarketplace.state.pa.us. No questions regarding the RFA will be answered outside of the RFA process.
