Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 032
Supporting Replication (SURE) of Housing Interventions in the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program - Evaluation Provider (HRSA-22-032) is a federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part F Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the awardee is expected to work closely with HRSA and partner entities as the project is carried out. The opportunity is designed to fund one organization to serve as the Evaluation Provider (EP) for a national, multi-site effort focused on housing-related interventions for people with HIV who are experiencing unstable housing.
The central aim of the EP role is to evaluate and help strengthen housing-related intervention strategies using an implementation science approach known as the HAB implementation science framework (often referenced as HAB IS). The project is explicitly focused on three priority populations that often face some of the most severe HIV-related disparities when housing is unstable: (1) LGBTQ people with HIV, (2) youth and young adults ages 13 to 24 with HIV, and (3) people with HIV who have been justice involved, meaning impacted by the criminal legal system. The emphasis is not just on whether an intervention works in one place, but whether it can be implemented effectively across different settings, adapted appropriately, and replicated more widely within RWHAP and partner housing systems.
This EP award is one half of a coordinated, two-recipient initiative. The second half is a separate award for an Implementing and Technical Assistance Provider (ITAP) under a companion notice (HRSA-22-031). The ITAP will issue subawards to as many as 10 implementation sites that will actually deliver, adapt, and operate the selected housing-related intervention strategies on the ground. In practice, the EP and ITAP are expected to operate as tightly linked partners: the ITAP focuses on implementation support (program startup, practice coaching, operational troubleshooting), while the EP focuses on evaluation support (data, measurement, analytic methods, cross-site learning). Both are required to coordinate activities and share information and data throughout implementation, evaluation, and dissemination.
On the evaluation side, the EP is responsible for developing and running a multi-site evaluation that is consistent across all participating implementation sites. That evaluation is expected to cover implementation outcomes (for example, how well sites adopt the model, fidelity versus adaptation decisions, barriers and facilitators, and sustainment considerations) and client outcomes (such as housing stability and HIV-related outcomes that are commonly influenced by stable housing). In addition, the EP must conduct a cost analysis that can be applied consistently across sites, which is important for replication because future adopters need realistic information about staffing, infrastructure, and resource requirements. While sites may also run local evaluations tailored to their own programs or communities, those local efforts are meant to complement the EPs standardized cross-site evaluation, and the EP is expected to support them as needed.
A major part of the EPs assignment is evaluation-related technical assistance to the implementation sites. This includes practical support like training site staff to use the required data portal and any connected data systems, setting up reliable data collection workflows, and helping troubleshoot data quality or reporting issues over time. Beyond data operations, the EP also plays a key role in translating findings into usable products: generating evaluation results, lessons learned, and other evaluation-focused deliverables that will then feed into the ITAPs dissemination package. The broader intent is for the ITAP to use those findings to create and distribute replication materials such as tools, templates, and an implementation manual that other RWHAP providers and housing partners can use to adopt proven approaches.
The interventions to be implemented and evaluated can draw from a range of housing-related models and prior initiatives. The notice points to examples and resources such as prior RWHAP SPNS housing-related initiatives and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) efforts, including the Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) program and related planning or demonstration initiatives (including work connected to coordinated HIV housing planning and initiatives linking housing supports with protections for survivors of violence). The point is to leverage what is already known, identify promising strategies, and then rigorously examine what it takes to replicate them across diverse RWHAP settings.
Finally, HRSA signals that housing is viewed as a critical lever for improving HIV health outcomes, and that the agency intends to draw on HUD expertise as needed, including HUDs Office of HIV/AIDS Housing, which administers HOPWA. This reinforces that the initiative sits at the intersection of health care delivery, supportive services, and housing systems. Overall, the EP award is about building credible, practical evidence on implementation, outcomes, and costs, then using that evidence to help the field scale housing interventions that can reduce disparities and improve outcomes for people with HIV experiencing unstable housing. The opportunity was posted November 22, 2021, with an original closing date of February 23, 2022, and anticipates one award under CFDA 93.928.Apply for HRSA 22 032

FAQs: Supporting Replication (SURE) of Housing Interventions in the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program - Evaluation Provider (HRSA-22-032)
What is HRSA-22-032?
HRSA-22-032 is a federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part F Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS). It funds one organization to serve as the Evaluation Provider (EP) for a national, multi-site initiative focused on housing-related interventions for people with HIV who are experiencing unstable housing.
What is the main purpose of this grant opportunity?
The main purpose is to support a single Evaluation Provider to design and run a standardized, multi-site evaluation that helps strengthen and replicate housing-related intervention strategies across different settings. The emphasis is on implementation (how strategies are adopted and adapted across sites), outcomes (including housing stability and HIV-related outcomes), and costs (what it realistically takes to operate the interventions).
Who is the funder and what program is this under?
The funder is HRSA (within HHS). The opportunity is under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part F Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS).
What type of award is this?
This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement. That means the awardee is expected to work closely with HRSA and partner entities as the project is carried out, rather than operating fully independently.
How many awards does HRSA anticipate making?
HRSA anticipates making one award for the Evaluation Provider (EP) under this notice.
What does "Evaluation Provider (EP)" mean in this project?
The Evaluation Provider is the organization responsible for developing and operating the cross-site evaluation for the initiative. The EP also provides evaluation-related technical assistance to implementation sites, supports data collection and reporting, and produces evaluation findings and lessons learned that can be used for broader replication and dissemination.
What is the overall project model (who does what)?
This EP award is one half of a coordinated two-recipient initiative. The second award (under a companion notice) is for an Implementing and Technical Assistance Provider (ITAP). The ITAP will issue subawards to up to 10 implementation sites that will deliver and adapt housing-related interventions in real-world settings. The EP and ITAP are expected to operate as closely linked partners, coordinating and sharing data and information throughout implementation, evaluation, and dissemination.
What is the companion funding notice for the ITAP?
The companion notice for the Implementing and Technical Assistance Provider (ITAP) is HRSA-22-031.
What are implementation sites and how many may be involved?
Implementation sites are the organizations that will actually deliver, adapt, and operate the selected housing-related intervention strategies on the ground. Under the companion ITAP award, the ITAP may issue subawards to as many as 10 implementation sites.
What evaluation approach is the EP expected to use?
The EP is expected to use an implementation science approach known as the HAB implementation science framework (often referenced as HAB IS) to evaluate and help strengthen housing-related intervention strategies.
What populations are prioritized in this initiative?
The initiative explicitly focuses on three priority populations of people with HIV who experience unstable housing and often face severe HIV-related disparities: (1) LGBTQ people with HIV, (2) youth and young adults ages 13 to 24 with HIV, and (3) people with HIV who have been justice involved (impacted by the criminal legal system).
Is the project focused only on whether an intervention works?
No. A core emphasis is whether an intervention can be implemented effectively across different settings, how it can be adapted appropriately, and what it takes to replicate it more widely within RWHAP and partner housing systems.
What kinds of outcomes should the EP evaluate?
The EP is expected to evaluate both implementation outcomes and client outcomes. Implementation outcomes may include adoption of the model, fidelity versus adaptation decisions, barriers and facilitators, and sustainment considerations. Client outcomes may include housing stability and HIV-related outcomes that are commonly influenced by stable housing.
What is meant by "implementation outcomes" in this notice?
Implementation outcomes refer to how well the intervention strategy is carried out in practice across sites. Examples mentioned include whether and how sites adopt the model, where sites maintain fidelity versus make adaptations, what barriers and facilitators affect implementation, and what factors influence sustainment over time.
What is meant by "client outcomes" in this notice?
Client outcomes refer to results for people receiving services through the housing-related interventions. Examples referenced include housing stability and HIV-related outcomes that are commonly influenced by stable housing.
Is a cost analysis required?
Yes. The EP must conduct a cost analysis that can be applied consistently across all participating implementation sites. The goal is to provide practical information about staffing, infrastructure, and resource requirements to support replication by future adopters.
Will implementation sites also conduct their own local evaluations?
They may. The notice indicates that sites may run local evaluations tailored to their programs or communities, but those efforts are intended to complement the EP's standardized cross-site evaluation. The EP is expected to support local efforts as needed.
What kind of technical assistance must the EP provide to implementation sites?
The EP is expected to provide evaluation-related technical assistance, including training site staff to use the required data portal and connected data systems, helping establish reliable data collection workflows, and troubleshooting data quality or reporting issues over time.
What role does the EP play in dissemination?
The EP is expected to translate evaluation findings into usable products, such as evaluation results and lessons learned. These deliverables are intended to feed into the ITAP's dissemination package, which will support broader replication.
What role does the ITAP play in dissemination?
The ITAP is expected to use findings and lessons (including those generated by the EP) to create and distribute replication materials. Examples include tools, templates, and an implementation manual that other RWHAP providers and housing partners can use to adopt proven approaches.
What kinds of housing-related interventions are expected to be evaluated?
The interventions can draw from a range of housing-related models and prior initiatives. The notice points to examples and resources such as prior RWHAP SPNS housing-related initiatives and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) efforts, including the Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) program and related planning or demonstration initiatives.
