# HRSA Awards $525 Million for Home Visiting

On October 5, 2026, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) announced more than $525 million in FY 2026 Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) awards for 56 state and jurisdiction recipients—the largest federal investment in the program’s history. The awards include base grants and expansion funding through matching grants, with 55 recipients receiving matching awards. This is grant funding, not a federal contract solicitation; the announcement identifies no RFP or contracting contact.

- States and jurisdictions will implement the funded services, which may create downstream needs for service delivery, staffing, training, or technology support.
- Contractors should distinguish these grants from direct federal procurements and look to recipient-level implementation for potential contracting opportunities.
- The announcement provides no solicitation schedule or recipient-specific procurement details; HRSA’s listed phone number is for press inquiries, not procurement questions.
