The following forecasted opportunities may be of interest:
Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems SEED Project: Scaling Effective Early Childhood Systems Development (ECCS SEED)
The purpose of the ECCS SEED Project is to address the root causes of chronic disease in early childhood by improving families’ access to health care, screening kids early for physical and mental health needs, and connecting parents to services that enable them to provide for their children. The ECCS SEED Project will partner with states and communities to support evidence-based strategies that improve access to quality care for prenatal-to-age-5 (P-5) families and promote healthy child development and family well-being.

Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) National Pediatric Readiness Coordinating Center Cooperative Agreement
The Emergency Medical Services for Children National Pediatric Readiness Coordinating Center demonstration program will work to assess and expand “Pediatric Readiness” in hospital emergency departments (ED) and pre-hospital emergency medical services (EMS) systems. Because children have unique physiological, emotional, and developmental characteristics, specialized emergency care is needed. Pediatric Readiness ensures that every EMS and fire-rescue agency and ED has the pediatric-specific leadership, competencies, policies, equipment, and other resources needed to provide high-quality emergency care for children, no matter where they live, attend school, or travel in the United States.
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) Center
The HHT Center Program reduces illness and death related to HHT by partnering with clinical center to expand access and coordination of care; creating innovative strategies that support clinicians with identifying and diagnosing HHT cases; and developing a de-identified, aggregate patient data registry to better understand this rare disease and its treatment outcomes.
Funding Opportunity Number: HRSA-26-092
Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Other Related Disabilities (LEND)
The purpose of the LEND program is to improve the quality of care for children and youth with autism/developmental disabilities (DD) by training health and related professionals to meet their needs across the lifespan. LEND programs train health and other professionals to screen, diagnose, and provide services for children and youth with autism/DD.

Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Program (PMHCA)
The PMHCA program helps improve mental and behavioral health for children and youth by giving pediatric primary care providers quick access to tele-consultation, training, and care coordination support.
Funding Opportunity Number: HRSA-26-058
The purpose of this program is to support a Regional Pediatric Prevention Network (RPPN). The RPPN strengthens local and regional capacity to care for children during disasters and emergencies through community partnerships, coordinated pediatric preparedness, and dissemination of research-informed pediatric disaster care. The RPPN will include at least 10 children’s hospitals, or their university pediatric partners, funded through two primary awards. It will also include community partners working with these hospitals. Each of the 10 Children’s Hospital centers will advance pediatric emergency and disaster preparedness at the local, regional, and national levels, including for children with special health care needs and behavioral health concerns, children living in poverty, and children in rural, remote, and tribal areas.
Funding Opportunity Number: HRSA-26-070

Funding Opportunity Number: HRSA-26-102
SoRCE improves the health of people with sickle cell disease (SCD) by expanding access to care, improving the quality of care, and tracking quality of life indicators. There are approximately 100,000 people in the United States with SCD. Treatment starting in early childhood can prevent or reduce complications such as severe pain episodes, silent strokes, and premature death. Despite universal identification at birth, fewer than half of children with SCD receive needed treatment. As these children become adolescents and transition to adulthood many are not appropriately identified as candidates for disease-modifying therapies, in part because their doctors are still learning how to use the latest treatments. The program is made up of seven regions with one award recipient per region serving as a Regional Coordinating Hub (RCH). Each award recipient will work with clinical and community-based partners in their region and engage in continuous quality improvement (CQI) initiatives to improve access and quality of care.
Funding Opportunity Number: HRSA-26-052
TPEC will advance the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) priorities by preventing chronic disease early in life and promoting healthy development in early childhood. TPEC recipients - organizations with statewide or tribal reach - will place early childhood development (ECD) experts in local pediatric practices to deliver team-based care to young children and their families. Recipients will improve the quality and cost effectiveness of pediatric primary care by delivering a comprehensive team-based approach that focuses on factors critical to child development.
