# HRSA Awards $12.7M Maternal Nutrition Grants

On October 13, 2026, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) announced $12.7 million in FY 2026 Maternal Produce Prescription Program awards to expand access to healthy food for pregnant and postpartum women and their families in low-income and medically underserved communities. HRSA also highlighted $5.4 million for telehealth nutrition services and $2.3 million for food and nutrition security initiatives serving people with HIV. The announcement identifies no awardees or procurement solicitation, so it signals federal funding activity rather than a specific contract competition.

- The funding spans produce prescriptions or vouchers, nutrition education, telehealth nutrition services, and food and nutrition security interventions.
- Healthcare providers and organizations delivering nutrition or telehealth services may find grant-supported program activity relevant, but the announcement does not specify application opportunities, recipients, or timelines.
- For contractors, the lack of named awardees or solicitation details means the announcement alone does not establish a specific bid or subcontracting opportunity.
