Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA GH13-1336) is a PEPFAR-supported cooperative agreement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focused on delivering and strengthening comprehensive HIV and TB prevention, care, and treatment services inside facilities run by South Africa's Department of Correctional Services (DCS). In practical terms, the grant is aimed at improving both direct health services for incarcerated people and the systems that make those services sustainable, coordinated, and aligned with South Africa's national strategies. The opportunity is framed within the larger PEPFAR approach led by the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator, where CDC works with the host country and other partners to assess needs and design support that fits the host nation's strategic plan and partnership framework.
The mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement beyond simply issuing funds. While the notice itself does not spell out the exact program activities in detail, the title and framing make the intent clear: support a package of integrated HIV and TB interventions in correctional settings and reinforce the underlying systems required to run those interventions effectively. In correctional facilities, this generally implies work across the full continuum of services, such as prevention and risk reduction, routine screening and testing, linkage to care, clinical management, treatment initiation and continuity, adherence support, and stronger referral systems within facilities and between facilities and community health services. It also implies strengthening operational capacity, including data and monitoring systems, quality improvement processes, and coordination structures that help DCS facilities provide consistent care over time.
The total estimated funding amount is $90,000,000, with an expected three awards. The award ceiling is listed as $12,000,000, with no award floor specified. The activity category is Health, and the CFDA number referenced is 93.067 (Global AIDS), which situates the award squarely within the U.S. government global HIV response portfolio. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier to applying and suggests the program is intended to fully resource the supported activities through federal funds.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of organization types, indicating CDC was open to applicants with different strengths, such as service delivery, technical assistance, research, or health systems implementation. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations (with or without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, tribal governments and tribal organizations, and state and local governments or their bona fide agents. Non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities are explicitly eligible as well, which is especially relevant for work taking place in South Africa. For applicants applying as a bona fide agent of a state or local government, the announcement requires formal documentation of that relationship, submitted as an attachment in the grants.gov application package.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on February 26, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 15, 2013, and an archive date of May 15, 2013. These dates indicate the announcement is historical, but the structure still reflects how CDC and PEPFAR commonly design correctional health investments: pairing direct service delivery expectations with systems strengthening so that the supported program can be maintained, scaled, and integrated with national plans.
For access issues or administrative help, the listed point of contact is CDC's Procurement and Grants Office, Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), reachable by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
