Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA SO11-11020401SUPP14) is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement supplement designed to give current Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) recipients an additional 12 months of support through a cost extension and program expansion. In practical terms, it is not a new, open competition; it is a time-limited add-on for existing grantees funded under CDC RFA SO11-1102. The overall aim is to help state and territorial health agencies sustain and strengthen ongoing BRFSS operations while also expanding the usefulness of the data for chronic disease and injury prevention work.
The program focuses on maintaining and expanding two connected capacities. First, it supports surveillance of health-related behaviors in the general population using multimode survey methods (for example, combining approaches such as telephone and other survey modes as appropriate) to better capture behaviors that contribute to chronic diseases and injuries, as well as behaviors tied to prevention. Second, it emphasizes the collection, analysis, and dissemination of BRFSS data so that state categorical programs can actively use the information. The intended use cases are very applied: tracking trends over time, guiding program planning, evaluating program effectiveness, setting priorities, informing policy decisions, and targeting interventions to the most relevant populations.
Eligibility is deliberately restricted. Only jurisdictions already funded under CDC RFA SO11-1102 may apply, including the Pacific jurisdictions specifically named: Guam, American Samoa, the Republic of Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia. The limitation is based on the expectation that current recipients already have the infrastructure, experience, and operational capability to carry out BRFSS-related work without the start-up time a new applicant would require. The announcement also allows a bona fide agent to apply on behalf of a state, territory, or local government, but that arrangement requires formal documentation: a letter from the relevant government entity must be included with the application submission materials.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement beyond simply providing funds, typically through technical assistance, program guidance, or collaboration on implementation and performance expectations. The opportunity projected a small number of awards (expected awards: 4) with an estimated total funding amount of $460,000. Individual award amounts were anticipated to range from a floor of $65,000 to a ceiling of $175,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers for eligible public health agencies that may have limited discretionary funds.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted on December 18, 2013, with an application closing date of January 21, 2014, and an archive date of February 20, 2014, indicating it is a historical, closed announcement. Two CFDA numbers are referenced (93.283 and 93.988), reflecting CDC program authorities associated with investigations/technical assistance and cooperative agreements supporting state-based programs and surveillance/evaluation systems. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement at the time, the listed point of contact was the CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management Section (phone: 770-488-2700).
Overall, this supplement was intended to keep existing BRFSS programs running smoothly for an additional year while encouraging expanded, more actionable use of BRFSS data across state and territorial public health programs, especially where those data directly inform chronic disease and injury prevention strategy, resource allocation, and policy development.
