Opportunity Summary:
The Childhood Immunization Support Project is a CDC funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-IP09-904) offered through the agency's Procurement and Grants Office. It is a discretionary health grant made as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work rather than operating purely as a hands-off funder. The program is designed to strengthen how childhood vaccines are delivered by focusing on the people who provide most pediatric care: pediatricians and the organizations that represent them.
The core purpose of the project is to improve pediatric providers' knowledge, day-to-day practices, and practical strategies that support high-quality immunization delivery. In plain terms, the CDC is looking to fund work that helps pediatric clinicians and practices do a better job with vaccination-related activities, such as staying current on recommendations, using effective office systems that reduce missed opportunities, and applying proven approaches that improve vaccination coverage and timeliness. While the short description does not list specific activities, the emphasis on knowledge, practices, and strategies suggests a focus on education, training, clinical workflow improvement, and dissemination of best practices that can be applied broadly across pediatric care settings.
Funding for this opportunity is structured around a single award. The announcement indicates that approximately $200,000 would be available in fiscal year 2009 to support one recipient, with an award ceiling of $200,000 and no stated minimum award amount. The source data also lists an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000, which may reflect broader budgeting across time or related efforts, but the solicitation summary makes clear that the planned fiscal year 2009 support for the one award is about $200,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is intentionally narrow. Applicants must be public nonprofit organizations, and the opportunity is further limited to national pediatric provider organizations. "National" is specifically defined as having at least three years of an active membership of at least 50,000, with chapters in at least 45 states. "Pediatric provider organizations" are defined as those whose primary constituency is pediatricians. In effect, the CDC is targeting large, established national organizations with broad reach, infrastructure, and the ability to disseminate immunization improvement efforts widely through a sizable membership and nationwide chapter network.
Key administrative details include the posting and application timeline. The opportunity was posted on July 20, 2009, with an application deadline of August 19, 2009, by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The archive date is September 18, 2009, and the estimated start or funding date is October 1, 2009. The opportunity falls under CFDA number 93.185, which covers Immunization Research, Demonstration, Public Information and Education, as well as Training and Clinical Skills Improvement Projects, aligning with the project aim of improving immunization delivery through provider-focused support and practice improvement.
Applicants were directed to review the full announcement on Grants.gov for complete requirements, deliverables, and submission instructions. For help accessing the announcement electronically, the CDC provided a contact point through PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700, with a general email listed in the notice.
