Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 19 080
The Fiscal Year 2019 New Access Points (NAP) grant opportunity (HRSA-19-080) is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), under the Health Center Program (CFDA 93.527). Its main goal is to expand access to primary health care in underserved communities by providing operational support to open new service delivery sites. In practice, the funding is designed to help organizations bring affordable, accessible, high-quality, and cost-effective comprehensive primary care closer to people who face significant barriers to getting care, with an emphasis on improving health outcomes and reducing health disparities among medically underserved and vulnerable populations.
A key point in this opportunity is what HRSA means by a "new access point." For this NOFO, a new access point is not a temporary clinic, a part-time outreach location, or a short-term project. It is defined as a new, full-time, permanent service delivery site where comprehensive primary health care services are provided. The intent is to create lasting, stable clinical capacity in areas or for populations where access is limited, rather than funding minor expansions or intermittent services. HRSA frames these sites as a direct way to address barriers to care for a specific community and/or population group, such as limited availability of providers, transportation challenges, affordability issues, or other access constraints.
Applicants are allowed flexibility in how many sites they propose, but with a major operational requirement: an applicant may request support for one new site or multiple new sites within a single NAP application, and all proposed sites must be open and operational within 120 days of the Notice of Award. That timeline signals that HRSA is looking for applicants who are ready to launch quickly, with site plans, staffing approaches, and operational readiness far enough along to begin delivering services soon after award.
The opportunity sits within the broader Health Center Program framework authorized by specific sections of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act. In this document, "health center" refers to awardees funded under Section 330(e) Community Health Center (CHC), 330(g) Migrant Health Center (MHC), 330(h) Health Care for the Homeless (HCH), and 330(i) Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC). Applicants can request funding to serve one population type or combine population types in a single application if their proposed sites will serve more than one group. For example, a proposed new clinic could be designed to serve both the general medically underserved community (CHC) and individuals experiencing homelessness (HCH), and the application can be structured to request both CHC and HCH support accordingly.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was created January 11, 2019, with an original application closing date of March 12, 2019. HRSA anticipated making about 75 awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates the ceiling was not specified in the summarized dataset and would need to be confirmed in the full NOFO details. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," meaning applicants would need to consult the full announcement to confirm exactly which organizational types and conditions qualify.
Overall, the NAP funding opportunity is best understood as a rapid-start investment to establish new, permanent access points for comprehensive primary care under the Health Center Program umbrella. It prioritizes expanding capacity where it is most needed, ensuring new sites are truly operational shortly after award, and allowing applicants to tailor proposed services to one or multiple underserved populations recognized in the Health Center Program authorities.Apply for HRSA 19 080
