Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 024

The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Access, Care, and Engagement Technical Assistance Center (ACE TA Center) funding opportunity (HRSA 22 024) is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) cooperative agreement designed to strengthen how Ryan White-funded systems help people with HIV get and keep health coverage, and then stay engaged in HIV care over time. The core idea is capacity building: HRSA is looking for one national entity that can provide technical assistance to RWHAP recipients and subrecipients so they are better equipped to guide clients through a complicated and constantly changing coverage environment. Rather than focusing on direct clinical services, the ACE TA Center is meant to improve the practical, on-the-ground ability of programs and staff to connect people with HIV to the full range of health care coverage options, use those benefits effectively, and reduce coverage disruptions that can derail treatment.

The work is national in scope and is expected to be done in close partnership with HRSA's HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB). Because this is a cooperative agreement, the federal role is more collaborative than a typical grant; the funded organization would coordinate with HAB on planning, priorities, and implementation of technical assistance strategies. The ACE TA Center is intended to support the broader RWHAP network, meaning states, tribes, nonprofits, clinics, and other provider organizations funded through Ryan White, along with their downstream partners. A major emphasis is ensuring that people with HIV not only have coverage but also understand how to navigate the health care system itself, including how to access clinicians, work with support service providers, and use other community or health system resources that contribute to ongoing engagement in care.

HRSA lays out four main goals for the ACE TA Center. First, it aims to maximize engagement of people with HIV in health care by increasing health literacy, especially practical knowledge about how to access services and stay connected to care once enrolled. Second, it seeks to increase awareness and understanding among RWHAP recipients, subrecipients, providers, and people with HIV about how to enroll in and use available health coverage options in an evolving health care landscape. This language signals that the center's technical assistance should be responsive to policy and system changes that affect eligibility, enrollment, benefits, and the day-to-day realities of maintaining coverage. Third, the opportunity calls for identifying or developing strategies and messages that promote equitable access to coverage options, recognizing that barriers are not evenly distributed and that tailored outreach and navigation approaches are often necessary. This goal explicitly highlights the workforce that typically does this work in Ryan White settings, including outreach workers, health educators, case managers, peer navigators, health care navigators, certified application counselors, and other assisters and administrators, suggesting that training tools, workflows, messaging, and best practices for these roles are central deliverables. Fourth, the program is ultimately tied to outcomes across the HIV care continuum, with specific attention to maximizing health coverage for people aging with HIV, a population that may face additional coverage transitions and complex service needs.

From an eligibility and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through HRSA, under CFDA 93.145, and is categorized as a discretionary cooperative agreement. Eligible applicants include state governments, federally recognized tribal governments, 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than higher education institutions), private institutions of higher education, and other entities as described in HRSA's additional eligibility guidance. The opportunity was posted on October 18, 2021, with an original application deadline of January 21, 2022. HRSA anticipated making a single award, reinforcing that this is intended to be one centralized national technical assistance center rather than multiple regional awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0 in the provided data, which typically indicates that the ceiling was not specified in that particular summary field rather than meaning no funding would be provided.

Overall, this grant opportunity is about improving the infrastructure around coverage access and retention for people with HIV, not just as an administrative task, but as a key driver of sustained engagement in HIV care and improved health outcomes. The ACE TA Center would function as a national hub for guidance, training, tools, and strategies that help Ryan White programs and front-line navigators translate coverage options into real, continuous access to care, with a strong equity lens and attention to the needs of people living long-term with HIV.
