Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 25 052
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funding opportunity HRSA-25-052 supports the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part C Early Intervention Services (EIS) Program in a set of limited, pre-defined geographic service areas. The main goal is to strengthen outpatient, community-based HIV care for low-income people with HIV by funding organizations that can deliver comprehensive primary medical care along with key support services that help people get diagnosed, enter care quickly, remain in care, and achieve the best possible health outcomes. The competition is structured around specific service areas listed in Appendix C, and the period of performance can differ depending on which area is being applied for. If an organization wants to serve multiple listed areas, it must submit a separate application for each one.
Funded providers are expected to deliver a defined package of early intervention services, either directly or through formal referral relationships such as contracts or memoranda of understanding (MOUs). At a minimum, successful applicants must ensure five core EIS functions are available: HIV counseling; targeted HIV testing; periodic medical evaluations for people with HIV including clinical and diagnostic services for HIV care and treatment; therapeutic measures to prevent and treat immune system deterioration and HIV-related conditions; and referrals to appropriate health care and support service providers. In practice, this means the program is not limited to testing or education alone. It is intended to connect people to ongoing outpatient HIV medical care and the wraparound supports needed to stay engaged in treatment.
All funded activities must be tied to HIV diagnosis, care, and support, and they must follow established HIV clinical practice standards consistent with current U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) guidelines. HRSA points applicants to the HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) Policy Clarification Notice (PCN) 16-02 as the central reference for what RWHAP considers allowable core medical services and support services. This matters for program design and budgeting because applicants need to map proposed services to allowable categories and show that they are delivering evidence-based HIV care and related supports in a compliant way.
The announcement also emphasizes statutory spending requirements that shape how award dollars can be used. First, at least 50 percent of the total award must be spent on EIS costs, with an explicit exception that counseling and referrals/linkage to care are not counted toward that 50 percent EIS expenditure requirement. Second, at least 75 percent of the award (after setting aside amounts for administrative costs, planning and evaluation, and clinical quality management, or CQM) must be spent on core medical services. HRSA notes that EIS is a subset within that broader 75 percent core medical services requirement, so budgets generally need to be heavily weighted toward medical care and clinical service delivery rather than non-medical activities. Third, no more than 10 percent of total award funds may be used for administrative costs. If an applicant believes it cannot meet the core medical services spending requirement, it may request a waiver, but the waiver request must be submitted with the application as Attachment 15.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that will provide RWHAP Part C EIS-funded services specifically within the geographic areas identified in Appendix C, and the competition is open both to current RWHAP Part C EIS recipients and to new, eligible applicants willing to operate in those areas. Eligible applicants must be based in the United States or certain U.S.-affiliated jurisdictions and freely associated states, including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau. Applicants must be public entities or nonprofit private entities and must fit within the eligible organization types laid out in section 2652(a)(1) of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act. Examples listed in the opportunity include federally qualified health centers, family planning grant recipients (other than states), comprehensive hemophilia diagnostic and treatment centers, rural health clinics, Indian Health Service-operated or contracted facilities, community-based organizations and health facilities providing EIS (including for people who acquired HIV through intravenous drug use), and nonprofit entities providing comprehensive primary care to populations at risk of HIV, including faith-based and community-based organizations. Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations are also explicitly eligible.
From the source details provided, this is a discretionary grant (CFDA 93.918) administered by HRSA, with an original application deadline of 2024-12-10 and an expectation of about six awards. The notice lists an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates that the maximum award amount is not specified in that field and applicants should rely on the full notice and service-area specifics for funding levels and performance periods. Overall, the opportunity is designed to maintain or expand access to outpatient HIV early intervention and ongoing treatment in specific service areas, with strict requirements to prioritize core medical care, limit administrative overhead, and ensure services align with federal HIV clinical standards.Apply for HRSA 25 052
