Section 300. Project grants and contracts for family planning services
(a) Authority of Secretary
The Secretary is authorized to make grants to and enter into
contracts with public or nonprofit private entities to assist in
the establishment and operation of voluntary family planning
projects which shall offer a broad range of acceptable and
effective family planning methods and services (including natural
family planning methods, infertility services, and services for
adolescents). To the extent practical, entities which receive
grants or contracts under this subsection shall encourage familiy
(!1) participation in projects assisted under this subsection.
(b) Factors determining awards; establishment and preservation of
rights of local and regional entities
In making grants and contracts under this section the Secretary
shall take into account the number of patients to be served, the
extent to which family planning services are needed locally, the
relative need of the applicant, and its capacity to make rapid and
effective use of such assistance. Local and regional entities shall
be assured the right to apply for direct grants and contracts under
this section, and the Secretary shall by regulation fully provide
for and protect such right.
(c) Reduction of grant amount
The Secretary, at the request of a recipient of a grant under
subsection (a) of this section, may reduce the amount of such grant
by the fair market value of any supplies or equipment furnished the
grant recipient by the Secretary. The amount by which any such
grant is so reduced shall be available for payment by the Secretary
of the costs incurred in furnishing the supplies or equipment on
which the reduction of such grant is based. Such amount shall be
deemed as part of the grant and shall be deemed to have been paid
to the grant recipient.
