Welcome to the ANA Applicant Resources page! Here you will find resources related to ANA’s Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs). These resources include an application training webinar, templates, and example documents to support applicants responding to the NOFOs.
Pre-Application Webinar
Watch the Pre-Application Webinar on demand
The pre-application webinar is available throughout the duration of the open application period. Viewing the webinar is voluntary. The webinar is available on demand above, and also on our Events page. The presentation will only include information provided in the NOFO. Opting not to view the webinar will not affect eligibility, application scoring, or the selection process. In the event of a discrepancy between the webinar and the NOFO, the NOFO takes precedence.
Our NOFOs have gone through some exciting changes as part of the HHS SimplerNOFOs initiative. Please visit our Funding Opportunity page for more details and links to our current NOFOs.
ANA’s Training and Technical Assistance (TTA) team has developed two important resources to support you in building your application:
Please contact your regional Training and Technical Assistance (T/TA) Provider for application assistance.
Pre-Application Manual
The Pre-application Manual will guide you through the process of putting together an ANA application. After completing the activities in this manual, you should have a solid outline of the project narrative, data tracking strategy, objective work plan, and budget to include in your application.
