Description:
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to provide support for the comprehensive service demonstration projects initially funded in FY 2000. Applicants should document continuing need for the project and propose ways of improving service provision to meet the needs of abandoned infants and young children or those who are at risk of abandonment and their families. Applicants should also propose methods to continue the program evaluation including proposed outcome measures and summary evaluative data on the current program. Applicants applying under this funding opportunity should be advised that this is a competitive funding process and that applications approved for funding will be given a new grant number. Further, existing award activities cannot overlap with the new grant's project period; and finally, funds from the currently existing grants cannot be expended for new grant activities. Projects supported under this funding opportunity are expected to serve as models for service provision to children and adolescents affected by HIV/AIDS. A model project funded under this initiative must: (a) Develop and implement an evidence-based project with specific components or strategies that are based on theory, research, or evaluation data; or, replicate or test the transferability of successfully evaluated program models; (b) Determine the effectiveness of the model and its components or strategies; and (c) Produce materials that will enable others to replicate the model.
