Opportunity Summary:

Dating Matters: Strategies to Promote Healthy Teen Relationships (CDC RFA-CE11-1103) was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cooperative agreement designed to help local public health agencies in large, high-risk urban areas build the capacity to prevent teen dating violence before it starts. The core goal was to establish a comprehensive, community-wide Teen Dating Violence (TDV) Prevention Initiative focused specifically on early adolescents ages 11 to 14, an age range where attitudes about relationships, boundaries, and conflict are forming and where prevention can have long-term impact. The initiative emphasized promoting respectful, nonviolent dating and relationship behaviors among youth, rather than responding only after violence occurs.

A central feature of the opportunity was the creation of “demonstration sites” that would implement and assess two different prevention approaches: a standard model and a comprehensive model. These sites were expected to develop the local infrastructure, partnerships, and implementation readiness needed to put TDV prevention into practice across a community, then examine how well each approach worked in real-world urban settings. In other words, the CDC was not only funding programming, but also funding the ability of communities to carry out, coordinate, and sustain prevention work, while generating practical evidence about effectiveness, feasibility, and long-term sustainability in high-risk environments.

Funding was offered through a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning recipients would carry out the work with substantial CDC involvement and collaboration typical of cooperative agreements. The program anticipated making 4 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $7,000,000. Individual awards were expected to range from $300,000 (floor) to $350,000 (ceiling). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowered barriers for eligible public agencies to participate.

Eligibility was limited and targeted. Applicants needed to be local, city, or county public health departments serving high-risk urban communities. “Urban” was defined using the Office of Management and Budget’s Metropolitan Statistical Area standard: an MSA population of 1,000,000 or more. The announcement also allowed for applications from a bona fide agent, meaning an agency or organization formally designated by a state (or local government, as applicable) to apply on its behalf. If applying as a bona fide agent, the applicant had to provide legal, binding documentation of that status as part of the submission.

Key administrative details include the posting date of February 18, 2011, with a letter of intent due March 21, 2011, and an application deadline of May 5, 2011. The opportunity was archived on June 4, 2011. The CFDA number associated with the program was 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs), reflecting the CDC’s injury prevention and violence prevention mission area.
