Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 102

The ARP Act Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Innovation Award - COVID-19 Related Data/Technology Innovations (Track Two) (HRSA-22-102) is a discretionary Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) cooperative agreement opportunity under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). It is designed to support MIECHV recipients in creating, putting into practice, and evaluating practical innovations that use technology and/or improved data collection and data sharing approaches to strengthen voluntary early childhood home visiting services. The core idea is to help programs modernize how they deliver services and measure results, while extending the reach and impact of home visiting for families, especially in the context of COVID-19 disruptions and longer-term recovery needs.

This funding sits alongside a companion competition (Track One, HRSA-22-089) that focuses on general data/technology innovations, but Track Two is specifically oriented toward innovations that help MIECHV programs respond to the impacts of the COVID-19 public health emergency. That includes supporting effective virtual service delivery and other technology-enabled approaches that allow programs to maintain quality and continuity when in-person services are limited or when families face new barriers. The announcement emphasizes that the pandemic forced many home visiting programs to pivot quickly, and this award is intended to build on those rapid changes by making them more deliberate, effective, and evidence-informed rather than temporary workarounds.

A key requirement is that proposed innovations must be consistent with the home visiting service delivery model or models the applicant is already implementing. In other words, the grant is not meant to replace established evidence-based home visiting models with something entirely different; instead, it supports enhancements and add-ons that help the model work better through smarter data use and better technology. HRSA frames the work around health equity and population health goals, encouraging applicants to design innovations that reduce disparities, improve access, and strengthen outcomes for communities that have historically experienced structural racism and discrimination and related barriers to resources and services.

The notice defines "innovation" in a fairly specific way: it can be a process, product, strategy, or practice that improves outcomes compared to the current status quo (or is reasonably expected to improve outcomes based on promising evidence or a strong theory of change) and that has the potential to be adopted widely. Applicants are strongly encouraged to focus on proposing one innovation, although that single innovation may include multiple coordinated strategies and activities. HRSA also makes it clear that applicants do not have to start from scratch; they may improve, expand, or advance innovations already underway within their MIECHV programs, which is especially relevant given the technology shifts many recipients already made during the pandemic.

From an operational standpoint, this opportunity supports the full lifecycle of an innovation: development (designing or refining the approach), implementation (putting it into real-world practice within MIECHV service delivery), and evaluation (assessing whether it improves delivery, access, quality, outcomes, or equity). Because it is a cooperative agreement, awardees should expect a more collaborative federal role than in a standard grant, typically involving substantial HRSA involvement in areas like project direction, learning, and monitoring.

The funding opportunity was posted September 3, 2021, with an original closing date of November 26, 2021. HRSA anticipated making about six awards. The public listing shows an award ceiling of "0," which generally signals that the ceiling was not provided in that extracted summary field rather than implying no funding; in practice, the detailed notice of funding opportunity would normally specify allowable budgets and periods of performance. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," with the narrative indicating that the target applicants are MIECHV recipients (the entities already funded under the MIECHV program), since the purpose is to strengthen service delivery within those existing programs.

Overall, Track Two is best understood as a targeted investment in pandemic-responsive modernization of home visiting: using better data systems, smarter data exchange, and technology-enabled service delivery (including virtual approaches) to maintain and improve home visiting effectiveness, expand reach, and advance equity. The emphasis is not only on adopting tools, but on implementing them in ways that are faithful to the home visiting model, measurably improve outcomes compared with current practice, and can ultimately be scaled or replicated across other MIECHV settings.
