The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announces its intent to accept and consider a single source application (RFA-FDA-OC- 04-01) for the awarding of a Cooperative Agreement to the National Alliance for Hispanic Health (the Alliance). The purpose of the agreement is to empower consumers to improve their health by providing better consumer health information; ensure that health information available to consumers is clear, informative, and effective; leverage opportunities to eliminate health disparities in subpopulations; respond to the health promotion and disease prevention objectives of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) "Healthy People 2010" document; and improve health literacy for Hispanic Americans. FDA anticipates providing $65,000 (direct and indirect costs) in fiscal year (FY) 2004 in support of this project. Subject to the availability of funds and successful performance, 2 additional years of support up to $65,000 per year (direct and indirect) will be available.
