Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Accelerating the Prevention and Control of HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STDs and TB in the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands" is a continuation cooperative agreement administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), specifically through the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP). It is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS13-130105CONT17 and is classified under the health funding activity category, with CFDA number 93.116. The overall intent is to sustain and strengthen public health capacity and program implementation aimed at preventing new infections, improving early detection, and enhancing control efforts for HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases, and tuberculosis in the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands, where geographic isolation, limited clinical and laboratory infrastructure, and workforce constraints can make surveillance, testing, treatment, and outbreak response more difficult.

Because this is labeled as a continuation opportunity, it is generally designed to extend or support ongoing work rather than launch an entirely new, open competition. In practice, continuation cooperative agreements typically align with previously funded program goals and performance expectations, and they emphasize maintaining momentum in core prevention and control activities already underway. The "cooperative agreement" instrument type is also important: it usually indicates substantial involvement by CDC beyond standard grant oversight. That can include close technical assistance, collaborative planning, support for implementing evidence-based interventions, help with strengthening surveillance and laboratory systems, and guidance on meeting federal program standards for disease reporting, quality assurance, and evaluation.

Eligibility is listed as "Others," with a note indicating that applicants must consult an additional eligibility field in the full announcement for clarification. In many CDC continuation actions, eligibility can be limited to current recipients or entities operating the existing program in the jurisdiction, which fits the continuation designation and the lack of publicly stated expected award counts. The opportunity record shows an award ceiling of 0, which often appears in system postings when the ceiling is not specified in that particular summary record, when budgets vary by recipient, or when funding levels are determined through continuation negotiations and appropriations rather than a single fixed cap. Likewise, the expected number of awards is not provided in the summary, which is common for continuation notices where the recipient pool is already established.

Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of August 1, 2016, with the opportunity created and posted on June 9, 2016. Those dates indicate a time-limited window for whatever continuation application package, progress reporting, or renewal documentation CDC required for that funding cycle. In summary, this funding opportunity represents CDC's continued investment in integrated, multi-disease public health efforts across HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, STDs, and TB in the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands, using a cooperative agreement structure that supports sustained implementation, technical collaboration, and strengthening of core public health systems needed to prevent transmission and improve disease control outcomes in those jurisdictions.
