Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2018 ACL AOD DNPA 0293
The grant opportunity titled "State of the States in Developmental Disabilities - On-going Data Collection and Information Dissemination" is a federal cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Community Living (ACL). It supports a single national project designed to maintain and expand a long-running, state-by-state, longitudinal study that tracks how states and the District of Columbia fund and deliver services and supports for people with developmental disabilities. At its core, the project is meant to function as a consistent, credible source of comparative data over time, so policymakers, advocates, researchers, and administrators can see how systems are changing, where investments are growing or shrinking, and which program models are emerging across the country.
The work funded under this opportunity centers on continuous data collection, analysis, and public dissemination. The project is expected to analyze developmental disabilities financial and program trends in every state and Washington, D.C., producing information that allows cross-state comparisons as well as year-to-year trend tracking. A major emphasis is identifying notable trends and innovations in how states finance key community-based supports, especially family support, supported living, and supported employment. In addition to the core tracking functions, the award also supports special topical studies that dig deeper into specific questions relevant to developmental disabilities policy, with Medicaid spending related to special education provided as an example of the type of targeted analysis that may be undertaken.
Another important piece of the project is coordination with other ACL data collection efforts. The opportunity calls for collaboration so that the project website can present both current-year targeted data and longer-run historical data in ways that are consistent and useful for the field. The dissemination approach is not limited to static reports; it also includes maintaining an online interface with a "create-a-chart" function that allows users to customize outputs and generate charts or reports tailored to their needs. In practical terms, this means the funded project must not only produce high-quality datasets and analysis, but also translate that work into accessible tools that help users explore and compare information without needing to do their own data processing.
Administratively, the opportunity is a discretionary funding program using a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial federal involvement during the project period (for example, coordination with ACL staff on priorities, deliverables, dissemination, or alignment with related data initiatives). The funding activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, and the CFDA number associated with the program is 93.631. Eligible applicants are limited to institutions of higher education, including public and state-controlled universities as well as private universities, reflecting the research-intensive and data infrastructure nature of the work. The opportunity anticipated one award with an annual award ceiling of $400,000, meaning a single organization would be selected to carry out the national-level study and dissemination functions.
Key dates included a posting/creation date of May 21, 2018 and an original closing date of July 20, 2018, with electronic applications due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the grant is best understood as support for an ongoing national data and policy tracking resource focused on developmental disabilities services and supports, combining rigorous state-level fiscal and program analysis with public-facing dissemination tools that make the information usable for decision-making and public accountability.Apply for HHS 2018 ACL AOD DNPA 0293
