Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 21 130

The State Systems Development Initiative (SSDI) Maternal Health Enhancement Supplement is a supplemental grant opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) within the US Department of Health and Human Services, designed to strengthen maternal and child health (MCH) data capacity in states and jurisdictions that are already funded under SSDI and actively participating in the Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health (AIM) program. The central aim is practical and performance-focused: improve how quickly, accurately, and consistently maternal health data are produced and submitted so AIM quality improvement (QI) work in birthing facilities can be guided by reliable, timely information.

This supplement targets a limited group of existing SSDI recipients. While 42 states and jurisdictions participate in both SSDI and AIM, HRSA planned to fund up to 15 supplemental awards, prioritizing places where the quality of AIM data submissions indicated a need for additional analytic or infrastructure support. In other words, it is not a stand-alone entry point into AIM or SSDI; it is additional funding meant to help current participants close data gaps that are holding back effective implementation and monitoring of AIM patient safety bundles.

The funding is intended to directly support state and jurisdictional reporting into the AIM Data Portal, which is the system used to track maternal health process and outcome measures tied to bundle implementation. By boosting staffing, analytic support, and data workflows (often leveraging Title V MCH and related analytic resources), the program is meant to improve the overall integrity of AIM reporting. The expected result is better data for decision-making at the facility and system level, allowing QI teams to identify problems sooner, track whether safety bundles are being used as intended, and understand whether outcomes are improving over time.

The opportunity lays out three main objectives. First, it seeks to expand MCH data capacity by using Title V/MCH analytic support to strengthen AIM QI efforts and promote more data-driven maternal health care improvements. Second, it emphasizes improving data quality, validity, and timeliness, recognizing that late, incomplete, or inconsistent data weakens QI and makes it difficult to compare progress across facilities or time periods. Third, it specifically calls for stronger collection and use of information on race, ethnicity, and social determinants of health, so states and jurisdictions can assess AIM impacts on health equity and disparities, not just overall averages. This equity emphasis signals that grantees are expected to move beyond basic reporting and toward analyses that can reveal uneven benefits, persistent gaps, and where targeted interventions may be needed.

From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant (not a formula allocation), listed under CFDA 93.110, with an award ceiling of $60,000 per recipient and an anticipated total of 15 awards. The funding opportunity number is HRSA-21-130, with the opportunity originally posted May 28, 2021 and an original closing date of July 2, 2021. Eligibility is limited to a specific subset of current SSDI award recipients that are enrolled in AIM and actively participating in QI through patient safety bundle implementation in birthing facilities, with further details referenced in the official eligibility guidance.

Overall, the SSDI Maternal Health Enhancement Supplement is best understood as a focused capacity-building investment: it is meant to help selected AIM-participating states and jurisdictions strengthen the data systems and analytic muscle needed to support real-time quality improvement, improve the credibility and usefulness of AIM reporting, and produce clearer equity-focused insights about maternal health outcomes and care processes.
