Notice To Announce Supplemental Awards To Support Training and 
Technical Assistance To Address Intimate Partner Violence

AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department 
of Health and Human Services.

ACTION: Notice of Supplemental Awards.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: HRSA provided supplemental funding to two current National 
Training and Technical Assistance Partners award recipients to advance 
HRSA's Strategy to Address Intimate Partner Violence by expanding 
critical training and technical assistance (T/TA) to health centers.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tracey Orloff, Director, HRSA, 
Strategic Partnerships Division, Office of Quality Improvement, at 
[email protected] or (301) 443-3197.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Recipients of the Award: School-Based Health Alliance (SBHA) and 
Futures without Violence (Futures).
    Amount of Non-Competitive Award: $75,000 for SBHA and $100,000 for 
Futures.
    Period of Supplemental Funding: Fiscal year 2020 and ongoing 
annually to the end of the project period, contingent upon availability 
of funds and recipient performance.
    CFDA Number: 93.129.

    Authority: Section 330(l) of the Public Health Service Act, 42 
U.S.C. 254b(l).

    Justification: Supplemental funding to SBHA and Futures is 
necessary to ensure timely implementation of expanded T/TA that builds 
upon current T/TA activities to strengthen health center capacity to 
identify, prevent, and address intimate partner violence (IPV) and its 
effects. SBHA's expanded T/TA will result in new and strengthened 
health center partnerships to protect and support children, increased 
health center capacity to address social determinants of health, and 
expanded health center strategies to prevent violence. Futures' 
expanded T/TA will expand health center use of electronic health 
records to support IPV and human trafficking interventions, increase 
collection of health center IPV and human trafficking data, and 
strengthen the use of health information technology to connect health 
center patients to referral services and support. The award recipients 
have the demonstrated subject matter expertise and experience required 
to swiftly address these time-sensitive needs.
