Who decides where, to whom and how funds are given?
The Ryan White Unit of the Department of Health and Human Services of the City of Newark, or the “Grantee,” issues Request For Proposals, determines the process to evaluate, award, and monitor all Ryan White Title-I funds to service providers throughout the NEMA. The grantee determines which individual service providers receive funds, how much they receive and awards these funds among all types of service provider organizations, including community-based organizations, hospitals, social service agencies, and others. The funds are, by federal mandate, directed to the service categories prioritized by the Planning Council. Back to Questions.
