Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary funding opportunity titled "A Cooperative Agreement for Monitoring Youth Exposure to Alcohol Marketing" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC-RFA-DP09-906). The announcement was posted on March 25, 2009, with applications due by April 24, 2009 at 5:00 PM Eastern Time, and the opportunity archived on May 24, 2009. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal interaction.
The program is designed to support one university- or college-based School of Public Health to run an ongoing, independent monitoring effort focused on youth exposure to alcohol marketing. A central feature is that monitoring must be company- and brand-specific, indicating the awardee is expected to track marketing practices in a way that can be attributed to particular alcohol companies and brands, not just broad categories of advertising. The work is intended to be continuous and systematic, creating a sustained surveillance-style capability rather than a one-time study.
A major deliverable is the development of web-based tools that allow users to evaluate how prevention strategies might reduce youth exposure to alcohol marketing. In other words, the funded project is expected not only to collect and analyze monitoring data, but also to translate findings into accessible online tools that help assess the potential impact of different interventions or policy approaches aimed at reducing youth exposure. This positions the project as both a monitoring and a practical decision-support effort, with an emphasis on usability and public health application.
The opportunity also has a strong training component. The recipient School of Public Health is expected to train students, faculty, and other public health professionals in two related areas: first, the methods used to independently monitor youth exposure to alcohol marketing; and second, strategies that can be used to effectively reduce that exposure. This implies the project should serve as a hub for building workforce capacity, spreading methodological expertise, and strengthening the field’s ability to evaluate and respond to alcohol marketing practices that reach youth.
Financially, CDC estimated approximately $4,000,000 in total funding to support a single award. The anticipated annual award range is reflected in an award floor of $700,000 and a ceiling of $1,000,000. The announcement states there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) listing associated with this opportunity is 93.283 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Investigations and Technical Assistance), and the activity category is Health. Only one award was expected, making this a highly competitive, single-recipient initiative.
Eligibility is narrowly focused. Eligible applicants are university and/or college-based Schools of Public Health, listed under "Others" with clarification provided in the eligibility text. The overall intent is to place this work within an academic public health setting capable of conducting independent monitoring, building web-based analytic tools, and delivering professional training aligned with public health practice.

For technical issues accessing the announcement, CDC provided contact support through PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700 and a general email contact (not fully specified in the excerpt).
