Maternal and Child Health Bureau

AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), HHS.

ACTION: Notice of Non-competitive Supplemental Funding to Georgetown 
University.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is 
issuing non-competitive supplemental funding under the Maternal Child 
Health Bureau, Title V program to ensure that Georgetown University, 
Maternal and Child Health Library can continue to provide much needed 
services to MCH professionals and members of the public.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Intended Recipient of the Award: Georgetown University.
    Amount of the Non-Competitive Supplemental Funding: $137,500.
    Project Period: The original project period for this grant is from 
January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2009.
    Period of Supplemental Support: January 1, 2010 through March 31, 
2010.

    Authority: This activity is under the authority of Title V, 
Section 501(a)2 of the Social Security Act as amended, 42 U.S.C. 
701.
    Catalogue of Federal Domestic Assistance Number: 93.110.

Justification for Non-Competitive Supplemental Funding

    The Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Library at Georgetown 
University serves as a national information and education resource 
library to help meet the changing needs of professionals, families with 
children, and the general public in the field of maternal and child 
health. The overall goal is to use information science and information 
technology to identify, collect, and organize information from the MCH 
field that is not readily available from other information sources and 
to make the information available for application by the MCH community 
in a timely, easy-to-access manner.
    Due to an unanticipated delay in the issuance of the funding 
opportunity announcement for this grant program, the award of non-
competitive funding for the period January 1, 2010, to March 31, 2010, 
to Georgetown University is necessary. In early fiscal year 2010, an 
open competition will take place for this grant program. The award of 
non-competitive supplemental funding for Georgetown University will 
enable the MCH Library to continue to provide this important service to 
MCH professionals and members of the public without disruption or 
delays until the results of the competition are known and a new award 
can be issued.
