Ryan White Part B: Status-Neutral Care Continuum (SNCC) Grant

The Ryan White Part B: Status-Neutral Care Continuum (SNCC) Grant, solicitation number HAHSTA-RWPartB_SNCC-9.25.26, is issued by the District of Columbia Department of Health to support comprehensive medical and support services for individuals living with or vulnerable to HIV in Washington, DC. The program focuses on two primary populations: those who are HIV-positive but not virally suppressed or engaged in care, and those who are HIV-negative but eligible for PrEP. The SNCC model utilizes AIR strategies to provide standardized education tools, enhanced navigation and retention services, and improved follow-up protocols. Services may include Medicaid-reimbursable Outpatient/Ambulatory Health Services and Mental Health Services. The total project period runs from April 1, 2027, through March 31, 2032, beginning with an initial one-year budget period and potentially extending through four additional 12-month periods. Applications must be submitted via the EGMS portal by November 10, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., with new applicants required to register in the system by October 23, 2026. To be eligible, organizations must possess a Tax ID and an active UEI registration in the federal System for Award Management (SAM). Awards are determined using a point-based scoring system across four criteria: Implementation (49 points), Need (22 points), Capacity (15 points), and Evaluative Measures (14 points). While the budget and budget justification are reviewed, they are not scored. Required submission documents include a project narrative, work plan, risk self-assessment, and a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) plan. Successful applicants must comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and provide proof of business licensure, cyber liability insurance, and a designated emergency backup site.
