Grants Provided Yes Competitive Bidding Yes
Competitive Bidding Details The Request for application process (RFA) begins each fall, with grant proposals sent to the Women's Health Branch by mid-November. Proposals are reviewed by volunteer committees, scored and rated based on a checklist which includes best practices for pregnancy prevention in teens. The number of grant awards selected are based on the amount of money available each year. Those grant applications ranking the highest receive priority funding. Those applications ranking lower will be funded only if additional funds are available and the proposals deemed viable during the review process. This process is being used in FY11.
