To apply for SAC or SAC-AA funding, review the Eligibility Criteria listed in the NOFO and review the information listed in the Service Area Announcement Table.
SAC and SAC-AA funding supports continued access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services for communities and populations currently served by the Health Center Program. A SAC or SAC-AA application is a request for federal financial assistance to continue comprehensive primary health care services provision in an area listed in the Service Area Announcement Table (SAAT). These areas are served by current Health Center Program award recipients whose periods of performance end in FY 2023; in instances of a SAC-AA, service areas may be competed off-cycle.
