Summary

Grants for early care of people with hemophilia must be made through the network of comprehensive hemophilia diagnostic and treatment centers. The Secretary can also give help directly, or pay others to help, so nonprofits can apply for those grants and plan, set up, or run programs. The Secretary can give planning grants to public or nonprofit groups to start early intervention services or to grow HIV/AIDS services in low-income or underserved communities. Money from these planning grants cannot buy land or build or permanently improve facilities (minor remodeling is allowed). Grants are only for groups that will use them to qualify for the main program grants. Preference goes to primary care providers in rural or underserved areas. Up to $50,000 may go for early intervention planning; up to $150,000 for capacity building, which cannot last more than 3 years in total. No more than 5% of the program’s yearly appropriation can be used for these activities.
