SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OASH Grants and Acquisitions Management
(GAM) Division oversees, administers, and supports grant-making
activities of public health offices on behalf of the Secretary of the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The grant-making
program offices that GAM supports include: the Office of Infectious
Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy (OIDP), Office of Minority Health (OMH),
Office of Population Affairs (OPA), Office of Research Integrity (ORI),
and Office on Women's Health (OWH). Another OASH component, the Office
of Regional Health Operations (ORHO), which includes ten Regional
Offices covering all states and territories of the United States and
three independent states in the Pacific, through its coordinating
function will also be involved in the OASH Grants Workshops.
Consistent with each office's mission and applicable statutory
authority, the OASH Grants Workshops aim to build capacity among
potential grant applicants and grant recipients in related areas such
as applying for and managing grants and cooperative agreements
(collectively grants) awarded under the programs listed by Assistance
Listing number below:
<bullet> 93.007 Public Awareness Campaigns on Embryo Adoption
<bullet> 93.085 Research on Research Integrity
<bullet> 93.088 Advancing System Improvements for Key Issues in Women's
Health
[[Page 70849]]
<bullet> 93.137 Community Programs to Improve Minority Health Grant
Program
<bullet> 93.217 Family Planning Services
<bullet> 93.260 Family Planning Personnel Training
<bullet> 93.297 Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program
<bullet> 98.343 Public Health Service Evaluation Funds
<bullet> 93.344 Research, Monitoring and Outcomes Definitions for

<bullet> 93.974 Family Planning Service Delivery Improvement Research
Grants
Full Assistance Listing descriptions are published and updated
annually on <a href="https://sam.gov">https://sam.gov</a>. Co-sponsors will work with OASH/GAM staff
to jointly develop an event. Both OASH and the co-sponsor must
contribute substantively to the development of the event.
OASH Grants Workshops may be convened over one to three days;
conducted virtually, in-person, or in a hybrid format (virtual and in-
person). Depending on the workshop format and scope, a workshop may
typically accommodate between 100 and 500 attendees.
Co-sponsors can charge registration fees to recover costs
associated with the events; however, co-sponsors may not set
registration fees at an amount higher than necessary to recover related
event expenses. Further, co-sponsors are solely responsible for
collecting and handling any registration fees collected.
Eligibility for Co-Sponsorship: The co-sponsoring entity must have
a demonstrated interest and experience in building capacity among
potential grant applicants and grant recipients, particularly with
respect to programs supported by GAM. The co-sponsoring entity must
participate substantively in the co-sponsored activity, not just
provide funding, logistical services, or other material support.
Each potential co-sponsorship's expression of interest shall
describe:
(1) The entity's interest in building capacity among potential
grant applicants and grant recipients,
(2) The entity's prior experience and current readiness to
undertake the responsibilities described above,
(3) The type of event(s) that the entity is interested in co-
sponsoring with GAM,
(4) Facilities and/or virtual platforms available for the event(s),
and
(5) Any current constraints with respect to dates or facilities.
The type of event may be a special topic of mutual interest with
one or more of the aforementioned GAM supported program offices and may
be developed jointly.
The expression of interest should be a bulleted outline, no more
than two pages in length, single-spaced, and 11-point font. An entity
may submit an expression of interest individually or jointly with other
entities describing their relative contributions.
Evaluation Criteria: After engaging in exploratory discussions with
potential co-sponsors that respond to this notice, the following
considerations will be used by HHS officials, as appropriate and
relevant, to select the co-sponsor(s):
<bullet> Qualifications and capability to fulfill co-sponsorship
responsibilities
<bullet> Suitability of the location of the proposed OASH Grants
Workshops in terms of the overall geographical distribution of OASH
Grants Workshops
<bullet> Potential for reaching, generating, and engaging an adequate
number of attendees who may be potential grant applicants and grant
recipients
<bullet> Availability and description of facilities and resources
needed to support the OASH Grants Workshop
<bullet> Availability of administrative support for the logistics of
hosting such OASH Grants Workshops
These duties will be outlined in a co-sponsorship agreement with
GAM and the sponsoring program office(s) that will set forth the
details of the co-sponsored activity, including the requirements that
any fees collected by the co-sponsor shall be limited to the amount
necessary to cover the co-sponsor's related event expenses. This co-
sponsorship agreement does not represent an endorsement by HHS, OASH,
GAM or its supported program office(s) of an individual co-sponsor's
policies, positions, or activities. Additionally, this agreement will
not affect any determination concerning activities by the co-sponsors
that are regulated by GAM's grant-supporting offices.
Dated: November 14, 2022.

Director, Grants and Acquisitions Management Division, Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Health.
