Emergency Medical Services for Children Demonstration Grants

The HRSA in collaboration with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announces that approximately $ 4.1 million in fiscal year (FY) 1997 funds will be available for grants authorized under section 1910 of the PHS Act. These discretionary grants will be made to States or accredited schools of medicine to support projects for the expansion and improvement of emergency medical services for children (EMSC). Within the HRSA, EMSC grants are administered by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB). The NHTSA participated with the MCHB in developing program priorities for the EMSC program for FY 1997. The NHTSA will share the Federal monitoring responsibilities for EMSC awards made during FY 1997 and will continue to provide ongoing technical assistance and consultation in regard to the required collaboration/linkages between applicants and their Highway Safety Offices and Emergency Medical Services Agencies for the State(s). Grantees funded under this program are expected to work collaboratively with the State agency or agencies administering the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) and the Children with Special Health Needs (CSHN) programs under the MCH Services Block
