Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 182 / Thursday, September 19, 2024 / Notices
Justification: This non-competitive
supplement will award $265,188 to New
York City Health & Hospitals
Corporation to fund the New York City
Poison Control Center (NYCPCC) to
provide coverage of calls to the toll-free
Poison Help line originating from Puerto
Rico from September 1, 2024, through
August 31, 2025. The Poison Control
Program ensures that individuals can
call a national toll-free Poison Help line
(1–800–222–1222) to connect to a local
poison control center in a poisoning
emergency. As required by statute, calls
to the Poison Help line must be directed
to poison control centers that are
accredited. In the most recent Notice of
Funding Opportunity, HRSA–24–045,
no application was received to respond
to calls from Puerto Rico. To ensure
uninterrupted poison control center
coverage for Puerto Rico, HRSA
identified NYCPCC as an accredited
center that is capable of responding to
Puerto Rico’s approximately 5,000 calls
annually. NYCPCC historically has been
able to provide temporary coverage for
Puerto Rico’s calls on an ad hoc basis
and has the qualifications, experience,
and personnel to do so on a longer-term
basis. Funds will be used for project
activities within the scope of the current
award (as announced in HRSA–24–045);
supplemental funds will support
NYCPCC to provide coverage to calls to
the Poison Help line originating from
Puerto Rico for a period of 1 year.
Future funds for coverage for Puerto
Rico may be made available in a Notice
of Funding Opportunity for a project
period of September 1, 2025, to August
31, 2028, subject to the availability of
funding for the activity.

Justification: NICHQ, as the current
HS Technical Assistance Support
Center, and recipient of the Supporting
HS Performance Project, provides
national support to all HRSA HS project
grantees. The supplemental funds will
support new and continued APN
activities. APN activities aim to reduce
infant mortality rates, address
disparities in maternal and infant health
outcomes, and address social
determinants of health. APNs are former
HS participants who have navigated
complex and often disparate health,
education, and social services. These
former HS participants, known as ‘‘peer
navigators,’’ help current HS families by
providing guidance and information
about public benefits and help to
address issues such as food insecurity,
unstable housing, and lack of
transportation.
NICHQ will use supplemental funds
to support HS grantees to implement
this peer-to-peer workforce model, the
APN Services Pilot. The APN Services
Pilot was previously known as the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Benefits Bundle Pilot. The APN Services
Pilot is an interagency collaboration
between the Department of Health and
Human Services and the Office of
Management and Budget/U.S. Digital
Service.
The pilot consists of five HS projects
in Florence, SC, Atlanta, GA, Baton
Rouge, LA, Los Angeles, CA and
