Major Change to HRSA Grant--New guidance in September!

HRSA has postponed the FY 2010 School Based Health Center Equipment (HRSA-10-276) funding opportunity.  According to HRSA, this decision is in response to the high volume of questions they received from the SBHC field concerning the application criteria, the cap for multi-site school-based health centers, and the limited application development time.

HRSA will release new guidance for the funding opportunity in September.
