is the budget narrative included in the page count?

Yes, please refer to pages 11 and 25 of the NOFO, budget narrative does count towards the page limit.

For clarification - do we have to address both Focus Areas #1 and #2?

Will there be a template provided for the data use agreement?

Response to Carol: Please see NOFO Page 9, 2. Summary of Funding. As well as page 14. Each focus area has a funding ceiling.

Response to Jen: NBS Propel recipients will work with the recipient of NBS Excel to establish data use agreements. Please see NOFO page 3 and Page 13.

Thank you

Can we apply for only Focus Area 1 or must we apply for both 1 and 2?

Response to Leslie: Please see NOFO Page 9, 2. Summary of Funding. As well as page 14. Each focus area has a funding ceiling. Applicants should review the Review Criteria, helpful table on NOFO page 18. Applicants should read both focus areas closely.

Would carryforward be allowed between years or would annual budget be capped at $325k? Would there be a possibility for no cost extension at the end of year 05? Thank you.

Both require approval and are not guaranteed.

I don't understand one of the previous answers - can we apply for just one Focus?

Carryover/NCE must fall within scope of prior approved activities.

does the PI need an ehb acct prior to the submision

What is an NBS Excel recipient and how do we find out who they are and who we are working with for the Propel project?

The regions have very different numbers of states included. Are you only having up to 3 awards per region despite these size differences?

Scott: We strongly encourage states to apply (even if there are more than 3 applicants per HHS region).

The NOFO does designate a funding priority as noted on NOFO 2.

and page 31

I think we want to know if any different criteria will be taken to analyze the proposals of these states that are not with the same population?

Will they be analyzed in the same way?

The size of the states

i.e. same amount of money per award, but some states have many more or less infants to test/follow up

Is there a current awardee for the HRSA-23-078Family Engagement and Leadership in Systems of CareDepartment of Health and Human ServicesHealth Resources and Services Administration and are states encouraged to work with this program?

Please see NOFO page 28 for review criteria. The NOFOs are reviewed by an Objective Review Committee using these metrics.

Be sure to address a state's needs, such as those you list, in the needs assessment.

is it an already existing program?
