DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Regional Training Centers
Announcement Type: New.
[[Page 41030]]
Funding Opportunity Number: 05036.
Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Number: 93.283.
Key Dates: Application Deadline: August 15, 2005.
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Authority: This program is authorized under sections 317(k)(2) of
the Public Health Service Act, (42 U.S.C. Section 247b(k)(2)), as
amended.
Background: As part of the fiscal year 2002 appropriations funding
legislation, the U.S. Congress mandated that the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), acting through the National Center on
Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD) Fetal Alcohol
Syndrome (FAS) Prevention Team and in coordination with the National
Task Force on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Fetal Alcohol Effect (NTFFAS/
FAE), other federally funded FAS programs, and appropriate
nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), would (1) develop guidelines for
the diagnosis of FAS and other negative birth outcomes resulting from
prenatal exposure to alcohol; (2) incorporate these guidelines into
curricula for medical and allied health students and practitioners, and
seek to have them fully recognized by professional organizations and
accrediting boards; and (3) disseminate curricula to and provide
training for medical and allied health students and practitioners
regarding these guidelines. As part of CDC's response to this mandate,
four FAS Regional Training Centers (RTCs) were established to
disseminate state-of-the-art information regarding FAS and training
medical and allied health professionals to use the new guidelines for
FAS diagnosis that were to be developed. From 2002 to 2005, the FAS
RTCs have developed and pilot-tested educational and training
experiences and materials. The RTCs are working with professional
organizations and accrediting boards to ensure that the FAS Guidelines
for Referral and Diagnosis and other FAS competencies are incorporated
into professional credentialing examinations.
Purpose: The purpose of the program is to implement, evaluate, and
enhance the existing Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) Regional Training
Centers (RTCs). This program addresses the ``Healthy People 2010''
focus area of Substance Abuse and Maternal, Infant, and Child Health.
Measurable outcomes of the program will be in alignment with one
(or more) of the following performance goal(s) for NCBDDD that include
establishing new, or enhancing, prevention programs that reduce the
prevalence of FAS, reduce prenatal exposure to alcohol, and improve
and/or link children who currently have FAS to health services.
This announcement is only for non-research activities supported by
CDC/ATSDR. If research is proposed, the application will not be
reviewed. For the definition of research, please see the CDC web site
at the following Internet address: http://www.cdc.gov/od/ads/opspoll1.htm
.
Awardee Activities: All RTCs are providing training and education
for medical and allied health students and providers. Although the RTCs
share common activities, there are some differences among the RTCs with
respect to their particular focus. For example, one RTC may focus on
developing and delivering education to medical students while another
RTC may concentrate primarily on providing training to community health
practitioners. In the application, each applicant should explain the
unique aspects, accomplishments, and future plans for their RTC. The
applicant should describe their strengths in terms of these four
categories:
A. Methods for increasing knowledge, attitudes and skills of
medical and allied health students and practitioners.
B. Training and education materials development
C. Training and education delivery, including recruitment of
participants
D. Evaluation
Awardee activities are as follows:
A. Methods for increasing knowledge, attitudes and skills of
medical and allied health students and practitioners.
Increase the workforce capacity for prevention,
identification, and intervention of FAS through education and training
activities.
Increase the proportion of medical and allied health
students who achieve core competencies through appropriate education
about FAS.
Provide technical assistance to others developing and
providing FAS education and training. This technical assistance may be
provided via telephone, e-mail, written consultation, or on-site.
Develop or enhance relationships with targeted state and
local public health/social service agencies, non-governmental agencies,
private providers, and other partners to expand the capacities for
professional and student education and training in FAS.
Expand the numbers of medical and allied health
professional training programs that use the RTC FAS competency-based
curriculum.
Expand the number of states with FAS related content on
their credentialing board exams.
Develop and maintain a Web site containing, at a minimum,
a list of courses and materials offered by the RTC, along with ordering
materials. Electronic versions of products should be posted on this Web
site. Materials developed and distributed by the RTCs must be in the
public domain and cannot be copyrighted. CDC reserves the right to make
additional changes to materials or products produced by the RTCs for
regional or national distribution. We encourage proposals that use
information technology in a creative, cost-effective way to train and
educate health care students and professionals. This might include
plans for the design, development, and evaluation of online training
courses, modules, seminars, and/or netmeetings.
Develop a sustainability plan for the continuation of the
RTC after the cooperative agreement period is completed.
B. Training and Education Materials Development:
Develop scientifically current, innovative, high-quality,
culturally appropriate programs and materials for FAS training and
education based on evaluation findings from the initial cooperative
agreement and from ongoing needs assessment. Submit proposals to CDC
for development of materials that can be used regionally and
nationally, including taking into account different cultural and
linguistic populations.
Incorporate training in health literacy and communication
skills so that providers can be better prepared to provide information,
counseling, referral, etc.
Develop methods to ensure that materials and resources for
FAS education and training are easily accessible.
Develop a plan for developing and evaluating marketing and
dissemination strategies.
C. Training and Education Delivery:
Increase opportunities for regular and ongoing FAS
prevention, identification, intervention training and education to
persons within the RTC region.
Develop a training plan that integrates the FAS Curriculum
Framework and Instructional Resources Handbook for Medical and Allied
Health Education and Practice developed by the FAS RTCs, CDC, and the
National Organization on FAS (NOFAS). The plan must be based on learner
needs and indicate how the applicant will provide a minimum of 200
hours of education and/or training for medical and allied health
students and practitioners.
[[Page 41031]]
Integrate additional curricula on birth defects/
developmental disabilities as opportunity and need arises. (Optional)
Provide continuing education credits for participants,
when possible and appropriate.
D. Evaluation:
Develop and implement a comprehensive evaluation plan that
assesses changes in learner knowledge, attitudes, and practice
behaviors among recipients of the training and education provided. The
plan should also address the degree to which trained providers increase
their interactions with other relevant service delivery agencies and
providers in the community (for example, increased referrals to alcohol
and drug centers and FAS diagnostic clinics).
Develop a plan to use evaluation information to provide
continuous quality improvement of training/education activities and
materials.
Develop a tracking system that documents the number of
hours of training/education provided, the number of trainees/students,
the type of trainees/students (nurses, physicians, psychologists,
etc.), the average cost of person trained, and the competencies
addressed by individual training courses.
In a cooperative agreement, CDC staff is substantially involved in
the program activities, above and beyond routine grant monitoring.
CDC Activities for this program are as follows:
Assist recipients in monitoring program evaluation/
performance, setting and meeting objectives, implementing methods, and
complying with cooperative agreement requirements and other funding
issues, through various methods including telephone consultation, site
visits, and site visit reports.
Provide technical assistance in assessing and prioritizing
training and education needs and in planning, implementing, and
evaluating training and education activities.
Provide technical assistance in developing and evaluating
innovative curriculum approaches, instructional strategies, and
materials tailored to meet the FAS curriculum competencies. This will
be accomplished through review, comment, and facilitation of
communications with other CDC grantees on this project.
Provide technical assistance in developing and evaluating
marketing and dissemination strategies.

III. Eligibility Information
III.1. Eligible Applicants
Eligible applicants are limited to those previously funded under
Program Announcement No. 00064: Meharry Medical College in
collaboration with Morehouse School of Medicine, St. Louis University
School of Medicine, University of California at Los Angeles School of
Medicine, and University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. This
limited eligibility is based on sustaining support to established
projects, and to take advantage of the foundation and training and
educational delivery systems developed and now in place to educate and
train medical and allied health students and practitioners regarding
FAS. These grantees have developed educational and training materials
and have conducted a variety of educational events for medical and
allied health students and professionals in all regions. These four
university-based grantees are uniquely qualified to implement, evaluate
and enhance the existing RTCs because they have: Already developed FAS
competencies for medical and allied health students and professionals;
developed educational curricula and are developing training materials
based on the FAS competencies; extensive experience in the field of FAS
and the education of medical and allied health students and
practitioners regarding FAS; access to the target audiences for the
cooperative agreement; previously established institutional support for
work in this area; already developed relationships throughout their
respective regions necessary to continue this work; and demonstrated
overall success in working collaboratively with CDC over the last three
years in the initial cooperative agreement. The new cooperative
agreement will be a continuation of the work conducted by the existing
RTCs (2002-2005) and thus the four current grantees are uniquely
qualified to carry on this work.
