Regional Excellence for Access to Comprehensive Care for Hemophilia Networks (REACH Networks)

The Regional Excellence for Access to Comprehensive Care for Hemophilia Networks, or REACH Networks, is a forecasted federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Health Resources and Services Administration. The opportunity number is HRSA-27-037, and the funding instrument is a grant under Assistance Listing 93.110, Special Projects of Regional and National Significance. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding in the Health funding activity category. The forecast was issued and last updated on August 24, 2026. Because this is a forecast rather than a posted notice of funding opportunity, some application requirements and submission details have not yet been provided. The purpose of REACH Networks is to improve access to coordinated, evidence-based comprehensive care for individuals with hemophilia and other related bleeding and clotting disorders. The program is intended to expand access to comprehensive care while strengthening the quality and coordination of services available to the affected population. Program activities described in the forecast include conducting quality improvement projects, training the workforce, providing ongoing education to Hemophilia Treatment Center staff, and improving best practices for comprehensive and collaborative care. The program also specifically identifies lifespan transitions as an area in which comprehensive and collaborative care practices are to be improved. HRSA estimates total program funding of $3,600,000 and expects to make eight awards. Both the estimated award floor and award ceiling are $450,000, indicating an estimated award amount of $450,000 per award based on the current forecast. No cost sharing or matching requirement applies. The forecast does not provide additional information regarding allowable and unallowable expenditures, indirect cost limitations, subaward restrictions, detailed budget rules, or a specific period of performance. These details should therefore be verified when the full funding notice is posted. Eligibility is broad and extends to any domestic public or private entity, including an Indian tribe or tribal organization as those terms are defined in the cited federal law. The applicant categories expressly listed include federally recognized Native American tribal governments, Native American tribal organizations, small businesses, nonprofit organizations with and without 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, city or township governments, county governments, state governments, special district governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities, public and state controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and for profit organizations other than small businesses. The forecast also includes an Others category and cites 42 CFR 51a.3(a) in support of the broad domestic public or private entity eligibility standard. The opportunity is currently forecasted rather than open for applications. HRSA estimates that the opportunity will be posted on November 6, 2026, which is treated as the anticipated application opening date based on the information currently available. The estimated application deadline is December 22, 2026. Electronically submitted applications must be submitted no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on that date. No letter of intent, concept paper, pre-proposal, notice of intent, initial application, or other pre-application gating requirement is identified in the forecast. The forecast also does not yet provide application forms, required narratives or uploads, evaluation criteria, review priorities, or other detailed submission mechanics. Applicants will need to consult the posted funding notice and application package when they become available. The estimated award date is May 2, 2027, and the estimated project start date is June 1, 2027. The opportunity is identified with fiscal year 2027 and has an archive date of September 1, 2028. No annual, biennial, quarterly, or other recurring application cycle is stated, so recurrence should not be inferred from the forecast. The listed grantor contact is DSCSHN - REACH, with the REACH Networks program contact available at cyshcn@hrsa.gov and 301-443-5962. Because the opportunity remains in forecast status, dates, award amounts, requirements, application components, and other program details may be further specified when HRSA posts the complete opportunity.

Align proposed activities with the stated program purposes: improving access to coordinated evidence-based comprehensive care, conducting quality improvement projects, training the workforce, providing ongoing education to Hemophilia Treatment Center staff, and improving comprehensive and collaborative care practices including lifespan transitions.
