Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA OT13 13020401SUPP16
This grant opportunity is a CDC supplemental funding announcement tied to the earlier cooperative agreement CDC-RFA-OT13-1302, using Prevention and Public Health Funds for FY 2016. It is not an open, nationwide competition; it is specifically designed for the national, nonprofit public health organizations that were already funded under the original OT13-1302 award. The overall aim is to help these organizations further strengthen the infrastructure and performance of the public health system by delivering capacity-building assistance (CBA) to governmental and nongovernmental partners. In this context, CDC uses the Institute of Medicine framing of the public health system as the combined work of government public health agencies plus the related efforts of private, voluntary, and individual actors that contribute to community health.
The amendment described in the notice is administrative and programmatic rather than a change in the submission deadline. It makes several revisions to the FY16 CIO Project Plans, including correcting category assignments for certain project plans, changing the title of one project plan, adding new project plans, and updating the estimated FY funding amount. Even with those updates, the application due date remains the same as originally posted.
At the heart of the program is the idea of capacity building: improving the people, organizations, and systems that enable public health to function well. CDC defines capacity building broadly to include technical assistance, training, information sharing, technology transfer, development of tools and materials, and in some cases funding that helps an organization operate more effectively or serve its population more comprehensively. The expected payoff is stronger execution of essential public health services, better protection and promotion of health in communities, and improved system-wide performance across the governmental and nongovernmental parts of public health.
The supplemental funding supports CBA aimed at three target population groupings. Category A focuses on governmental public health departments. Category B targets workforce segments across governmental public health departments, emphasizing the people and skill sets needed to deliver modern public health practice. Category C covers other governmental and nongovernmental components of the public health system, recognizing that meaningful improvements often require engagement beyond health departments alone. Applicants are expected to apply within the same target population category (A, B, or C) for which they received their initial FY2013 funding under OT13-1302.
Recipients are expected to show measurable progress toward at least two outcomes that reflect stronger systems, workforce, and practice. These outcomes include adopting proven business and administrative improvements that produce efficiencies or cost savings; expanding access to continuing education and training tied to public health competencies and new skills (including experience-based internships and fellowships); embedding core public health competencies into job descriptions and performance evaluations; integrating modern technology into data collection and information systems; increasing the use of evidence-based programs, policies, and services; improving readiness to meet nationally recognized standards such as health department accreditation; building and sustaining diverse partnerships to support evidence-based strategies and interventions (including efforts aligned with CDC priorities such as Winnable Battles); and improving the quality and accessibility of public health education materials, training resources, and evaluation tools.
Program activities are organized around six broad strategies that reflect CDC OSTLTS priorities and national recommendations from sources such as Healthy People 2020, the National Prevention Strategy, and major national public health reports. Applicants may propose work in one or more of these strategy areas, selecting activities based on the priority needs of the audiences they serve. The six strategy areas are: public health systems and organizational improvement; public health workforce; public health data and information systems; public health practice and services; public health partnerships; and public health resources, communication, and evaluation. In practice, this could mean helping agencies modernize management processes, building training pipelines and competency-based development, upgrading data and informatics capacity, spreading effective interventions, strengthening cross-sector partnerships, and improving communication and evaluation so public health programs can demonstrate results and continuously improve.
Key administrative details in the notice reinforce the limited eligibility and the cooperative agreement structure. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC anticipates substantial involvement with recipients in planning, executing, and monitoring the supported work. The opportunity is listed as discretionary, within the health activity category, under CFDA 93.424, and administered by CDC’s Office for State, Tribal, Local, and Territorial Support (OSTLTS). Eligibility is restricted to the prior awardee organizations and requires nonprofit status under IRS 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(6) (excluding institutions of higher education). The posting also indicates an expected 26 awards and an award ceiling listed as 0, which typically signals that award size may be determined through other parts of the funding guidance or budget tables rather than a single published cap in the summary line. The original closing date shown is July 6, 2016, and the amendment explicitly notes that the due date does not change.Apply for CDC RFA OT13 13020401SUPP16
