National Coordinating Center on Transition | HRSA 24 041

Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 24 041

The National Coordinating Center on Transition (NCCT) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-24-041) is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) that will be awarded as a cooperative agreement. It sits under the broader Transition for Youth with Autism and/or Epilepsy program, which also includes a separate, companion opportunity for Transition Demonstration Projects (HRSA-24-042). A key rule in this announcement is that an organization must choose only one of these two opportunities to apply for; HRSA will not consider an applicant for funding if it submits applications to more than one of the two funding opportunity numbers or focus areas.

The overall goal of the program is to strengthen how youth with autism and/or epilepsy move from child-focused services into adult-serving health and social service systems, especially for youth who have complex needs and require more intensive family support and coordination. The NCCT is intended to operate at a national level, helping develop and advance frameworks that can be used across national, state, and local or community settings to make transitions more consistent, better coordinated, and more responsive to the realities families face when navigating multiple systems.

In practical terms, the NCCT award is designed to fund a single coordinating entity that can support broader implementation and alignment of transition approaches, rather than acting as a local direct-service project. Because it is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial involvement from HRSA in guiding, collaborating on, or shaping elements of the work during the period of performance, consistent with how cooperative agreements typically function compared to standard grants.

Eligibility is broad and includes many types of domestic organizations and governments. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and other entities as permitted by HRSA. Geographic eligibility covers organizations located in the United States and certain territories and freely associated states, including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau. The announcement points applicants to Grants.gov resources for additional eligibility guidance.

The NCCT opportunity (CFDA/Assistance Listing number 93.110) has an award ceiling of $735,000 and HRSA expects to make one award, meaning it is structured as a single national coordinating award rather than multiple regional awards. The opportunity was created on 2023-11-01, and the original application closing date listed is 2024-03-13.
