Dear Frontline Champions For Life,
I wanted to inform you of a government-funded grant that the local pregnancy centers in your area would be eligible to apply for:
“The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced the availability of $260 million in a new funding opportunity for the Title X Family Planning Program to help improve and expand quality care. The funding opportunity will assist in the establishment and/or operation of voluntary family planning projects that will offer a broad range of family planning methods and services, including information, education and counseling related to family planning, preconception care, contraception, natural family planning, and infertility services. In particular, this year’s funding opportunity is seeking applicants that offer a broad range of family planning and related health services tailored to the individual needs of the client and that promote optimal health outcomes. As emphasized in the statutory language governing the program, ‘none of the funds appropriated under this title shall be used in programs where abortion is a method of family planning.'”
The due date to apply is May 24, 2018.
Would you please encourage your local pregnancy centers to apply for these funds?
I would love to be a resource if you have any questions concerning the application process.
Below you will find two links containing further information about the grant:
