HRSA Extends FQHC Performance Periods to 4 Years — $828M in Non-Competitive Awards for 194 Health Centers
HRSA is moving from 3-year to 4-year performance periods for health center grantees starting in FY2026, with 192 non-competitive awards totaling approximately $828 million. Longer grant cycles mean less time spent on competitive applications and more operational stability — a meaningful administrative relief during the current financial crisis.
