SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
CFDA Number: 93.110.
Justification for the Exception to
Competition: The former grantee,
Southern Nevada Area Health Education
Center, relinquished all grants due to
financial difficulties and closure of
facilities and programs. The Maternal
and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) has
identified the University of Nevada
School of Medicine, Department of
Pediatrics as the best qualified grantee
for this replacement award because: the
University of Nevada School of
Medicine, Department of Pediatrics
maintains an on-going partnership with
the original grantee, the Southern
Nevada Area Health Education Center;
the original Project Director has a
clinical appointment with the
Department of Pediatrics; the
Department of Pediatrics is maintaining
the project despite not having access to
grant funds; and obstetrical care for
pregnant women occurs at a clinic
jointly run by the Department of
Pediatrics and the Department of Family
and Community Medicine. Transferring
funds to the Department of Pediatrics
will not change the project as originally
proposed and funded, as it still serves
the intended target population,
maintains partnerships with many of
the community organizations discussed
in the original application and proposes
to enhance services with the addition of
the Project Outreach Coordinator. In
sum, the Department of Pediatrics has
the capacity to provide an array of
Healthy Tomorrows supported
prevention and intervention services to
the target population and to fulfill the
expectations of the originally funded
grant application.
This grant transfer will ensure that
prevention and intervention services
remain available for approximately 100
African American, Hispanic, and/or
American Indian pregnant women in
Clark County and Southern Nevada and
their children; launch a communitywide, bi-lingual program of culturally
competent public education and
awareness services to recruit and enroll
at least 100 women into the Nevada
Care Program; and maintain the Nevada
Care Program Screening Clinic to
monitor the health and development of
infants born to pregnant women
enrolled in the program. Not ensuring
continued funding to provide these
services would have a substantially
negative impact on the healthcare needs
of this population, while continued
funding to the Department of Pediatrics
will ensure that these critical services
remain available to address the
demonstrated needs of low-income,
underserved women, children and
