Opportunity Information: Apply for PA PHE 20 001

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health and the Office of Population Affairs (OPA), announced a Fiscal Year 2020 discretionary grant opportunity titled "Announcement of Anticipated Availability of Funds for Research to Practice Center Grants for Adolescent Health Promotion in Order to Prevent Teenage Pregnancy" (Funding Opportunity Number: PA-PHE-20-001). The funding is authorized under Section 241 of the Public Health Service Act and is intended to support a small number of center-style projects focused on moving proven knowledge into real-world use.

The core purpose of the program is to take what research already shows about adolescent health promotion and teen pregnancy prevention and turn it into practical, usable strategies that communities and programs can actually implement. Rather than funding brand-new basic research, the emphasis is on synthesis and translation: pulling together existing evidence, identifying what works, packaging it into approaches that can be adopted in practice settings, and supporting health promotion activities that encourage healthy behaviors. The expected downstream goal is fewer teen pregnancies, reached by improving adolescent health behaviors and strengthening prevention practices.

This opportunity uses the grant funding instrument and falls under the Health funding activity category (CFDA 93.343). OPA anticipated making about three awards under this announcement, with an award ceiling of up to $1,200,000 per award. In practical terms, this suggests a competitive program designed to fund a limited number of relatively substantial projects that can operate as "research-to-practice" centers and have enough resources to meaningfully develop, translate, and spread evidence-based approaches.

Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the formal details referenced in the announcement's additional eligibility information. Applications were accepted beginning with the posting on June 5, 2020, and the original application closing date was August 4, 2020. Overall, the opportunity is aimed at organizations capable of bridging the gap between research findings and on-the-ground adolescent health promotion work, with the specific public health objective of preventing teenage pregnancy by enabling healthier choices and stronger prevention programming.
