Request a Grant Writer

Cooperative agreement to a USA or territories government agency or Native American organization to provide services for individuals with brain injuries. Applicants are advised that required registrations may take up to several days to complete. The purpose of this program is to create and strengthen person-centered, culturally competent systems of services and supports that maximize the independence and overall health and well-being of all people with TBI across the lifespan, their family members, and their support networks.

The TBI State Partnership Program seeks to build and maintain an interstate community of collaboration that enhances the national impact of the program.

The goals of this funding opportunity are:

To increase collaboration and coordination of state level activities across systems and supports and to ensure all people with TBI, including those from diverse and underserved populations, and other stakeholders are provided ample opportunity to contribute meaningfully to needs assessments and state plans that will drive improvement of TBI services and supports.
To allow for more comprehensive data collection that shows the level of need for various types of services and supports across systems and identify barriers to services and supports.
To create a greater understanding of state demographics, resources, and program impact among partners as well as the effectiveness of different services or supports.
To create a better coordinated public investment in effective, high-quality, equitable, evidence-based services and supports for all individuals with TBI, their families, and their support networks that results in fewer people with TBI encountering barriers to needed services and supports.

The TBI State Partnership Program has approved performance measures that all grantees are required to report on semi-annually. Performance measures can be found in Section I.D.7. of this funding announcement and include but are not limited to the following:

You are strongly encouraged to submit your application a minimum of 3-5 days prior to the application closing date. Do not wait until the last day in the event you encounter technical difficulties, either on your end or, with https://www.grants.gov.

The Grants.gov registration process can take several days. If your organization is not currently registered, please begin this process immediately.

All applicants must have a UEI and be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM, http://www.sam.gov/) and maintain an active SAM registration until the application process is complete, and should a grant be made, throughout the life of the award. Once your SAM registration is active, allow 24 to 48 hours for the information to be available in Grants.gov before you can submit an application through Grants.gov. This action should allow you time to resolve any issues that may arise.

Additionally, all first-tier subaward recipients must have a UEI number at the time the subaward is made.

Cost Sharing/Matching is required for this program per § 1252(c) of the Public Health Service Act. The state, territory, or federally recognized Indian Tribal government or Native American organization must agree to make available non-federal contributions in an amount that is not less than $1 for every $2 of federal funds provided under the grant. Non-federal funds may be cash or in-kind and fairly evaluated, including plant, equipment, or services. State, territorial, or Indian Tribal government contributions may not include any amounts provided by the federal government. The match, as required by the TBI legislation, must come from state or local sources and may be governmental or non-governmental resources.
