Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 21 016
The Advanced Nursing Education - Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (ANE-SANE) Program is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Its central goal is to strengthen the health care response to sexual assault and domestic violence by investing in advanced nursing education that prepares nurses to serve as Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANEs). The program is designed to increase both the overall number of qualified, working SANEs and their availability across communities, with a focus on improving timely access to sexual assault forensic examinations.
This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-21-016; CFDA 93.247) supports training and certification for Registered Nurses (RNs), Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs), and Forensic Nurses (FNs) so they can competently perform the clinical and forensic responsibilities required of SANEs. In practical terms, that means developing and expanding educational pathways that equip nurses to provide trauma-informed medical care, conduct forensic exams, document findings properly, collect and preserve evidence, and coordinate with multidisciplinary partners involved in survivor support and the justice process.
HRSA frames the public benefit in two connected ways. First, expanding access to SANEs is intended to improve the immediate physical and mental health care survivors receive after an assault, including more specialized assessment, treatment, and referrals. Second, having properly trained forensic examiners is expected to strengthen evidence collection and documentation, which can improve the quality of forensic evidence and, downstream, may contribute to higher rates of successful prosecution when survivors choose to engage with the legal system. The overall emphasis is on improving survivor-centered care while also strengthening the integrity of the forensic exam process.
The award mechanism is a grant, with an award ceiling of $500,000 per award and an anticipated 16 awards. The opportunity was posted on November 17, 2020, with an original application closing date of February 17, 2021. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with further clarification referenced in the funding notice under an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section, indicating that interested applicants needed to consult the full announcement for the specific types of organizations permitted to apply.Apply for HRSA 21 016
