Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 23 066
The Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health (AIM) Capacity grant (HRSA-23-066) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) intended to strengthen state-level ability to implement the national AIM program. AIM is a cross-sector national effort focused on improving safety and quality in maternity care by identifying, developing, implementing, and spreading evidence-based "maternal patient safety bundles." These bundles are structured sets of best practices aimed at preventing, recognizing, and responding to leading causes of maternal complications across prenatal care, labor and delivery, and the postpartum period. The larger purpose is to reduce the United States' high rates of maternal mortality and severe maternal morbidity (SMM) by making safe, reliable, high-quality maternity care more consistent across hospitals and other birth settings.
A key reason for the AIM Capacity initiative is that, up to this point, states have largely relied on seed funding to launch AIM-related work, which limits how widely and consistently bundles can be rolled out and sustained. Through this new funding stream, HRSA aims to increase the resources available to states so they can expand participation (more hospitals and other birthing facilities), deepen implementation (more bundles adopted and maintained over time), and improve the quality of implementation (stronger fidelity to bundle elements, better training and coordination, and more reliable measurement). The program aligns with legislative intent to "identify, develop, or disseminate best practices" that improve maternal health care quality and outcomes, improve maternal and infant health, and eliminate preventable maternal deaths and severe maternal morbidity.
This funding opportunity is positioned as one of two connected components of the overall AIM program. The second component is a separate cooperative agreement for an AIM Technical Assistance (TA) Center (HRSA-23-084). While the Capacity awards focus on boosting on-the-ground state implementation, the TA Center is intended to support every participating jurisdiction and facility nationwide, including all 50 states, Washington, D.C., U.S. territories and jurisdictions, tribal communities, and birthing facilities engaged with AIM. The TA Center role includes providing hands-on technical assistance and building stronger data capacity so participants can track progress, improve data collection and reporting, and measure impact more effectively. In practice, the Capacity grants supply the staffing and infrastructure states need to drive implementation, while the TA Center helps standardize and strengthen how implementation and measurement are carried out across different settings.
The overarching goal of the AIM Capacity program is to improve maternal health and safety in the United States by increasing access to safe, dependable, and high-quality maternity care. HRSA sets specific targets for what recipients should help accomplish by August 31, 2027. These objectives include increasing the number of hospitals and other birthing facility settings that are implementing AIM patient safety bundles, and increasing the overall number of core bundles that are implemented and/or sustained. The emphasis is not just on starting new bundle efforts, but also on maintaining them over time so the practices become routine rather than temporary projects. Award recipients are also expected to support widespread implementation of core bundles that incorporate respectful, equitable, and supportive care, reflecting a clear expectation that quality improvement efforts address both clinical safety and the patient experience.
Another central expectation is that participating AIM states strengthen how they understand and address disparities. Specifically, states are expected to collect data on disparities by race and ethnicity for at least one patient safety bundle. This requirement signals that implementation is not only about overall averages in outcomes, but also about identifying where harms and gaps are concentrated and ensuring bundle-based improvements benefit all populations. Overall, the AIM Capacity opportunity is designed to move AIM from early-stage, uneven adoption toward broad, durable, data-informed implementation that can measurably reduce preventable maternal deaths and severe maternal morbidity while improving equity and respectful care across birth settings.
