76856 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 

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 

Stoneville, Mississippi.
