Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 21 050
The Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program - Formula grant (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-21-050; CFDA 93.870) is a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services opportunity administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) in partnership with the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The program funds states and other eligible recipients (eligibility is described in the full notice) to deliver coordinated, comprehensive, high-quality, and voluntary home visiting services for eligible families, with a specific focus on families living in at-risk communities identified through an approved statewide needs assessment update. In practical terms, the grant is meant to strengthen and build on Title V of the Social Security Act efforts, improve how services are coordinated within at-risk communities, and ensure families can access a connected set of supports rather than fragmented programs that operate in isolation.
At the core of the program is the expectation that recipients will implement evidence-based home visiting models or, where allowed, promising approach models as defined in the notice (referenced as Appendix D). Home visiting is intended to be the primary service delivery strategy and it must remain voluntary for families. Funds are designed to support programs that actively serve eligible families in the highest-need areas and that are structured around the MIECHV benchmark framework. Those benchmark areas are set in statute and include: improving maternal and newborn health; preventing child injuries and reducing child abuse, neglect, or maltreatment (including reducing emergency department visits); improving school readiness and educational achievement; reducing crime or domestic violence; strengthening family economic self-sufficiency; and improving coordination and referrals so families are connected to other community resources and supports. The emphasis is not only on providing direct home visiting services, but also on using those services as a hub that links families to health care, early childhood services, and community-based assistance.
The opportunity also highlights system-building and partnership requirements. Recipients are expected to ensure the delivery of high-quality home visiting by coordinating with broader statewide early childhood systems, meaning home visiting should be aligned with and supported by other early childhood and family-serving infrastructure across the state. In addition, recipients must collaborate with state and local partners to expand both the availability of coordinated early childhood services and families access to those services. This reflects the program's focus on collaboration and effectiveness: home visiting programs are not meant to stand alone, but to operate as part of an integrated early childhood system that can respond to a range of family needs.
From an administrative standpoint, the notice describes the opportunity as a discretionary grant with an expected 56 awards. The posting date is March 18, 2021, with an original application deadline of June 15, 2021. The award ceiling is listed as 0 in the source data, which typically signals that the maximum award amount is not stated in that particular field and applicants should rely on the full notice and formula details for funding calculations and limits. Overall, the grant is aimed at scaling and improving home visiting services in communities with the greatest need, while holding programs accountable to clear outcome areas and encouraging strong coordination across health, early childhood, and social service systems.Apply for HRSA 21 050
