Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) posted a federal funding opportunity connected to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, under the broader theme of "Prevention and Wellness" and the Communities Putting Prevention to Work initiative (CFDA 93.724). The listing indicates that the opportunity was categorized as an "Other" type of funding opportunity and used an "Other" funding instrument, which usually signals that the standard grant/cooperative agreement language may not have been fully defined in the public synopsis at the time of posting. The core purpose area, based on the CFDA label, aligns with ARRA-era investments intended to support community-level prevention strategies and wellness-focused public health activities.
What stands out in this specific notice is that the full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) was not actually available when the synopsis was published. The description explicitly states that the FOA "will be published at a later date" at the request of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). In practical terms, that means this posting functioned more like a placeholder or pre-announcement rather than a usable solicitation. Applicants would not have been able to rely on this record alone to prepare a complete application because key elements normally included in a full FOA (program expectations, required components, review criteria, budget guidance, reporting requirements, and application instructions) were deferred.
The administrative timeline in the record is also unusual. The opportunity shows a posted date and creation date of May 26, 2010. It lists an original closing date of June 26, 2010, but also shows a "current closing date" of May 27, 2010, which is essentially the next day after posting. That kind of date configuration often indicates an administrative correction, withdrawal, short placeholder window, or a rapid change driven by federal-level review before the agency released the full FOA. In other words, the dates in this summary should not be interpreted as a normal application window, because the agency was simultaneously indicating that the FOA itself would come later.
From a funding perspective, the award ceiling and award floor are both listed as 0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. A ceiling and floor of 0 typically does not mean the program has no money; it usually means the amounts were not finalized or not entered into the public system at the time of posting. Similarly, while the eligibility field is labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the synopsis itself only repeats "Others" and does not provide the promised clarifying detail. That again reinforces that this entry was incomplete by design and dependent on a later, full FOA publication for definitive eligibility rules.
The agency is clearly identified as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For access issues or help obtaining the full announcement once available, the notice directs interested parties to contact the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO) by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov. This contact information is useful because it provides a direct route for applicants who could not retrieve the announcement electronically or who needed confirmation on whether and when the complete FOA would be released.
Overall, the opportunity can be summarized as an ARRA-related CDC prevention and wellness funding notice associated with Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CFDA 93.724), but with the critical limitation that the full solicitation was intentionally delayed at the request of HHS and OMB. The public record provides only high-level identifiers (title, program area, CFDA number, and agency contact) and does not provide actionable requirements, funding levels, or finalized eligibility, making it primarily an informational posting rather than a complete, applicant-ready grant announcement.
