Broad Eligibility
Trillium describes this RFA as an NC ROOTS opportunity to implement the I Gave Birth program across participating birthing facilities, hospitals and community partners in Regions 2 and 5. The public landing page does not publish a complete direct-applicant list, so applicants should confirm eligibility in the controlling RFA package.
Atlas Analysis
The August 31, 2026 NC ROOTS I Gave Birth application window is closed. Atlas now treats the record as postpartum-safety implementation intelligence and a successor-funding watch. The model remains strategically relevant because consistent identification of recent birth status can improve triage, escalation and care coordination across rural hospitals, emergency settings and community partners. Award notification is expected in September or October 2026.
Archived Opportunity
The 2026 NC ROOTS Region 2 and Region 5 I Gave Birth Implementation RFA closed on August 31, 2026. Atlas is keeping the page live as maternal-health quality intelligence and to track successor implementation funding.
Program Purpose
Trillium Health Resources designed the opportunity to expand the I Gave Birth postpartum-safety program across participating birthing facilities, hospitals and community partners. The model helps clinicians recognize postpartum status and respond appropriately to warning signs after delivery.
2026 Timeline
The RFA was released July 30, 2026, with the application deadline on August 31. Trillium lists award notification for September or October 2026.
Strategic Value
Postpartum complications often present outside the original birthing facility, so consistent identification of recent birth status can improve triage, escalation and care coordination across emergency, ambulatory and community settings. The initiative is especially relevant to rural systems where specialty access and transfer distances can complicate maternal care.
Atlas Successor Watch
Do not submit to the closed 2026 round. Hospitals and community partners in Regions 2 and 5 should monitor Trillium for award announcements, implementation guidance and future maternal-health funding that expands postpartum safety, emergency recognition and regional care coordination.
