This Medical Reserve Corps grant is for enhancing the nation’s ability to respond to public health and medical emergencies. The program aims to build the capabilities of Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) units nationwide, ensuring they can effectively meet community needs during crises. A critical aspect of this multi-year cooperative agreement is to identify and address barriers that hinder the deployment of MRC units and volunteers during emergencies. Furthermore, awardees, particularly MRC units, are expected to develop robust sustainability plans to maintain and expand these vital response capabilities beyond the grant period. One award will support MRC units across the country.

| Description: | The purpose of this funding opportunity is to continue to build the capabilities of MRC units across the Nation to respond to and meet their communities’ public health and medical needs in emergencies. It is not sufficient to just build capabilities; those capabilities should also be called upon during times of need, so the awardee should also identify barriers to the use of MRC units and volunteers during emergencies and plan to address those barriers. This multi-year cooperative agreement is also intended to enable awardees and sub-awardees, especially the MRC units, to develop a sustainability plan to continue to maintain and even build response capabilities after the end of the period of performance. One award will be made to a single entity (eligibility is described below) which will provide support to MRC units across the country. |
