Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 25 016
The Service Area Competition (SAC) grant opportunity (HRSA-25-016) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under the Health Center Program (CFDA 93.224). The central goal of this funding is to maintain continuity of care in specific communities by supporting health centers that serve populations and service areas already covered by the Health Center Program. In practical terms, SAC is designed to prevent gaps in access to primary and preventive health services by ensuring that existing Health Center Program service areas continue to have an accountable, funded provider organization capable of delivering required services and meeting federal health center standards.
This opportunity is open to a wide range of domestic applicants across the United States and its territories, as long as the applicant is either a private, non-profit entity or a public agency. Eligible applicants explicitly include state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; federally recognized tribal governments; tribal organizations (including those other than federally recognized tribal governments); and nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). HRSA also notes that tribal and urban Indian organizations are eligible to apply, reflecting the program's intent to support access to care for American Indian and Alaska Native communities as well as urban Indian populations when they are part of the existing service footprint.
The funding instrument is a grant, and HRSA anticipates making approximately 88 awards under this announcement. The posting indicates an award ceiling of $0, which typically signals that applicants should rely on the detailed NOFO and related program guidance for actual funding limits, budgeting rules, and how requested amounts should align with the scope of services and the defined service area. The opportunity was created on August 15, 2024, and the original application closing date is October 15, 2024, giving applicants a defined window to prepare and submit materials that demonstrate their ability to meet Health Center Program requirements and expectations.
Overall, SAC is best understood as a continuity-focused competition: it is aimed at sustaining federally supported health center operations in communities that are already part of the Health Center Program rather than launching entirely new service areas. Applicants should expect that successful proposals will need to show readiness to deliver comprehensive health center services, maintain compliance with Health Center Program standards, and continue serving the existing target community and patient population without interruption, consistent with the NOFO's referenced program requirements and expectations.Apply for HRSA 25 016
