Technical and Non-Financial Assistance to Programs Funded Under the Health Centers Consolidation Act of 1996 (PCAs): FY 2005 will be the fourth year of the President's Initiative to Expand the Health Centers. The goals will be met through a coordinated approach of 1) strengthening existing health centers; 2) supporting the growth of new health centers; and 3) managing quality improvement in all health centers. These essential areas of the Initiative are being supported through training and technical assistance (TA) for States, communities, and organizations. The training and TA will be designed to address the needs of existing and new health centers to ensure the delivery of high quality primary care services and to build and maintain primary care capacity in underserved communities. Training and TA activities will be directed to BPHC-supported programs, as well as to other community-based providers with similar missions. Training and TA activities will be carried out by private, non-profit membership organizations that have membership policies open to all BPHC supported programs and include other community-based providers with similar missions and governance. Organizations funded under this opportunity will help facilitate, coordinate and develop BPHC relationships with States, community and national interests.
