Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 22 108
The Department of Health and Human Services, through the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is offering a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Innovative ways to provide education on antimicrobial stewardship practices in animals" (Funding Opportunity Number PAR 22 108). This program is designed to support projects that create and test new, effective ways to spread practical information about antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and to encourage better antimicrobial stewardship in food-producing animals. The core idea is straightforward: when antimicrobials are used more thoughtfully and strategically as part of herd and flock health plans, animal health can still be protected while reducing the pressures that drive the development and spread of resistant bacteria.
The focus of the opportunity is education and outreach rather than basic research. Applicants are expected to develop innovative approaches for communicating the health risks tied to AMR and the real-world benefits of stewardship, especially in agricultural settings where antimicrobials may be used to prevent, control, or treat disease. The grant is aimed at improving how information is delivered and adopted, which can include creating new training tools, outreach campaigns, decision-support resources, or other dissemination methods that help producers, veterinarians, and animal care stakeholders make better-informed choices about antimicrobial use. A key emphasis is on integrating stewardship into disease management plans at the herd or flock level, meaning projects should help animal agriculture stakeholders understand how to optimize antimicrobial use while maintaining effective disease control.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates an active role for the federal agency during the project period, such as collaboration, technical input, or ongoing coordination (as opposed to a hands-off grant). The opportunity falls under the Agriculture, Consumer Protection, Food and Nutrition activity category and is listed under CFDA number 93.103. The maximum award amount is $300,000, and the FDA expects to make about three awards, suggesting a competitive selection process with a relatively small number of funded projects.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations that could plausibly deliver education and outreach at scale. Eligible applicants include state, county, and local governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and other entities as described in the opportunitys additional eligibility details. This wide eligibility pool indicates the agency is open to diverse implementation models, from university extension-style programming to veterinary networks, producer organizations, technology-enabled training platforms, and partnerships that can reach people who make day-to-day antimicrobial use decisions.
The opportunity was created on January 14, 2022, and the original closing date listed is May 2, 2024. Overall, this funding opportunity is best understood as support for practical, impactful education strategies that can measurably improve antimicrobial stewardship behaviors in food-animal production, thereby helping to protect both animal health and public health by slowing the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance.Apply for PAR 22 108
