Prevention Initiatives in Latin America
and the Caribbean; Notice of Intent To
Fund Single Eligibility Award
A. Purpose
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) announces the intent
to fund fiscal year (FY) 2005 funds for
a cooperative agreement program to
prevent non-communicable diseases,
adverse reproductive outcomes, injuries,
birth defects, developmental and
physical disabilities and adverse
consequences resulting from hereditary
conditions in countries in the Latin
American and Caribbean region.
Through enhanced collaboration
between the Pan American Health
Organization (PAHO) and CDC, member
countries can: (a) Promote a healthy,
active lifestyle, disseminate information
and provide expertise to prevent and
control non-communicable diseases for
which physical inactivity is a major risk
factor, (including but not limited to
obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular
disease); (b) enhance, develop,
implement, and evaluate communitybased programs, including programs
addressing cardiovascular health, health
care and aging, and conduct behavioural
risk factor surveillance and prevention
research; (c) improve measurement,
monitoring, and assessment of maternal
and infant health, strengthen
community-based maternal and
perinatal health care systems, and
improve and use surveillance systems to
monitor and evaluate the quality of
reproductive services; (d) strengthen
their capacity to conduct surveillance,
develop interventions and information
technology tools, carry out access to
care and economic impact studies, and
share information related to diabetes
prevention and control; (e) strengthen
tobacco control through surveillance
and evaluation, training, networking,
and information exchange relative to
policy approaches to implement smokefree environments; (f) develop

indicators and systems to monitor
injuries and violence, conduct training
and education, and to implement and
evaluate comprehensive prevention
strategies. The Catalog of Federal
Domestic Assistance number for this
program is 93.283.
Assistance will be provided only to
the Pan American Health Organization
(PAHO) for this project. PAHO is the
oldest international public health
agency, with over 100 years of
experience in working to improve
health and living standards of the
countries of the Americas. It serves as
the specialized organization for health
of the Inter-American System. It also
serves as the Regional Office for the
Americas of the World Health
Organization (WHO) and enjoys
international recognition as part of the
UN system.
Since its creation in 1902, PAHO has
worked to advance policies, plans and
programs that improve health and
human development. PAHO consists of
thirty-eight Member States, and by
encouraging collaboration among
countries, PAHO aims to ensure that
health promotion and noncommunicable disease prevention
strategies are incorporated both at the
national and local level.
C. Funding
Approximately $989,900 is available
in FY 2005 to fund this award. It is
expected that the award will begin on or
before July 29, 2005, and will be made
for a 12-month budget period within a
project period of up to 5 years. Funding

Executive Summary: One of the
functions of the Division of
Unaccompanied Children’s Services
(DUCS) within ORR is to provide
temporary shelter care and other related
services to children in ORR custody.
Shelter care services will be provided
for the period beginning when DUCS
accepts the child for placement and
custody and ending when the child is
released from custody, a final
disposition of the child’s immigration
case results in removal of the child from
the United States or the child turns 18
years of age. Shelter care and other child
welfare related services in a State
licensed residential shelter care program
should be provided in the least
restrictive setting appropriate to the
UAC’s age and special needs. While the
majority of UAC remain in care for an
average of 45 days, some will stay for
shorter or longer periods of time. ORR
is particularly interested in those
facilities licensed for long term care as
opposed to those facilities licensed as
emergency shelters.
This announcement provides the
opportunity to fund providers of shelter
(basic, group home, staff secure, secure,
therapeutic group home, transitional
and long-term foster care services) and
those providers that conduct suitability
assessments and provide
recommendations on such assessments.
In this announcement, providers are
referred to as ‘‘Recipients.’’ The
children, although placed in the
physical custody of the Recipient,
remain entirely in the custody of the
Federal Government.
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Legislative Authority: This program is
authorized by section 462 of the
Homeland Security Act of 2002, (6
U.S.C. 279) which, in March 2003,
transferred responsibility of the
Unaccompanied Alien Children’s
Program from the Commissioner of the
former Immigration and Naturalization
Service (INS) to the Director of the
Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) of
the Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS).
The Director of ORR is encouraged to
use the refugee children foster care
system established pursuant to section
412(d) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1522(d)) for
the placement of UAC. All programs
must comply with the Flores Settlement
Agreement and regulations that will be
published.
