Justification: This funding provides one-time supplemental funding
to JSI Research & Training Institute, Inc., which currently carries out
the AIM Technical Assistance Center cooperative agreement, with a
budget period of September 2025 through February 2027. This supplement
supports the recipient in developing the Care for Incarcerated Pregnant
and Postpartum Women Resource Kit. Consistent with congressional intent
outlined in Senate Report 119-55, which accompanied the FY 2026
appropriation, HRSA, through its Maternal and Child Health Bureau will
``support the development and implementation of a resource kit for
providers, as well as correctional custody and healthcare staff, who
care for pregnant, birthing and postpartum women who are
incarcerated.'' Such resource kits should include best practices,
resources, and planning materials for use by teams in healthcare
settings that may not typically provide obstetric services or
frequently care for people in need of obstetric care. The AIM Technical
Assistance Center maintains a public facing website,
<a href="http://www.saferbirth.org">www.saferbirth.org</a>, which disseminates a variety of resource kits aimed
at improving maternal health. The addition of a Care for Incarcerated
Pregnant and Postpartum Women Resource Kit is complementary to the
resources shared by the AIM Technical Assistance Center.

Administrator.
