Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Development, Operation, and Evaulation of an Entertainment Education Program" is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding announcement issued as a continuation cooperative agreement under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CD12 120103CONT14. It falls under the health activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.283, which covers CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance. In practical terms, the focus is on supporting the ongoing development, day-to-day operation, and evaluation of an entertainment-education program, meaning a program that uses entertainment-based media or storytelling approaches to communicate public health messages, influence awareness, and support behavior change.
This particular announcement is not an open competition. It is explicitly limited to continuation funding for organizations that were previously funded under the same RFA (CDC RFA CD12 120103CONT14) for the same project title. The eligibility language makes clear that only current, previously awarded grantees under this exact funding opportunity are intended recipients. While the general "Eligible Applicants" field references "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the clarification provided overrides any broader interpretation by stating the award is intended only for existing grantees already funded through this mechanism.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project beyond what is common in a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often include collaboration with CDC staff on key elements such as program design refinement, implementation support, monitoring, evaluation planning, and dissemination of findings. Even though the notice does not provide detailed program requirements in the excerpt, the title signals three core areas: creating or refining entertainment-education content (development), delivering and managing the program over time (operation), and assessing results and effectiveness (evaluation). Evaluation in this context often involves measuring reach, audience engagement, knowledge or attitude shifts, and potential behavioral or public health outcomes tied to the program's messages.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted and created on March 14, 2014, with an original and current closing date of April 17, 2014, and it was archived on May 17, 2014. The listing shows "Expected Awards: 10," indicating CDC anticipated making up to ten continuation awards under this action, though the excerpt lists an "EstimatedTotalFunding" value of 0, which usually reflects that the specific dollar amount was not populated in the listing or that funding totals were handled through internal continuation processes rather than advertised as new money. The announcement also specifies there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so recipients were not required to contribute a defined non-federal share as a condition of the award.
