Funding Opportunity – Supporting Healthy Start Performance Project – HRSA-24-038
The purpose of the Supporting Health Start Performance Project (SHSPP) is to provide training and technical assistance (TA) to support grant recipients in improving their service delivery, meeting outcome measures, and building program ability to work with community partners to improve health and social service systems to reduce maternal and infant health disparities. These grant recipients include those funded under the following programs:
- Healthy Start (HS)
- Health Start Enhanced (HSE)
- Catalyst for Infant Health Equity (Catalyst)
To carry out these activities, the SHSPP recipient will serve as the Healthy Start Technical Assistance and Support Center (TASC). As the TASC, the SHSPP will aid in strengthening the implementation of HS grant recipient activities by providing ongoing training and TA to grant recipients. The HS, HSE, and Catalyst programs have an increased emphasis on addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) to improve disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes. Training and TA strategies provided by the SHSPP are expected to acknowledge and respond to SDOH affecting HS grant recipients across the country.
