Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offered this discretionary funding opportunity as a cooperative agreement to support American Indian and Alaska Native communities in reducing motor vehicle injuries and deaths through proven, community-based prevention approaches. The core idea of the program is not to invent untested projects, but to take interventions that already have demonstrated effectiveness and then design or tailor them so they fit local tribal circumstances, priorities, and culture. The program emphasizes doing the full cycle of work: planning and adapting an intervention, implementing it in the community, and evaluating results to show what changed and what worked.
The grant focuses on three specific injury-prevention areas tied to major risk factors for serious crashes: first, strategies to reduce alcohol-impaired driving among high-risk groups; second, strategies to increase safety belt use in groups or communities where seat belt use is low; and third, strategies to increase the use of child safety seats among groups where car seat use is low. In practical terms, projects under this opportunity would be expected to concentrate on measurable behavior change in one or more of these areas and to use approaches supported by evidence, rather than relying solely on general awareness efforts.
A central theme of the opportunity is cultural relevance and community fit. CDC signals that the intent is to help tribes develop evidence-based programs while taking into account the unique cultural contexts of Native communities. That means interventions should be adapted thoughtfully, guided by the community, and aligned with local norms, governance, and service systems, while still retaining the core elements that make the strategies effective. Because the mechanism is a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial involvement from CDC beyond a typical grant, such as technical assistance, coordination, or shared planning expectations.
Funding for the announcement (CDC RFA CE10-1001) was estimated at $1,680,000 total, with an expected six awards. The listed award ceiling was $70,000, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding instrument type was a cooperative agreement under the health activity category, and the program is associated with CFDA 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs). The opportunity was posted April 8, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 17, 2010, and an archive date of July 17, 2010.
Eligibility was limited to Native-serving governmental and tribally affiliated entities, specifically federally recognized or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments, American Indian/Alaska Native tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native health corporations, and Urban Indian health organizations. The announcement notes that applicants may include tribal injury prevention programs, tribal health departments, and groups or consortia of tribes, reflecting an interest in both single-tribe and multi-tribe approaches where appropriate. One explicit restriction is that tribal programs previously funded as CDC Motor Vehicle Injury Prevention Program pilot sites from 2004 to 2009 (RFA #04015) were not eligible to apply, because CDC had already funded four pilot tribal programs during that period using effective strategies.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, CDC provided contact information for the Procurement and Grants Office (TIMS) with a telephone number (770-488-2700) and an email address (PGOTIM@cdc.gov).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is this CDC funding opportunity?
This is a CDC discretionary funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement (RFA CE10-1001) to support American Indian and Alaska Native communities in reducing motor vehicle injuries and deaths using proven, community-based prevention approaches.
What is the overall goal of the program?
The goal is to reduce motor vehicle injuries and fatalities in American Indian and Alaska Native communities by implementing interventions that already have demonstrated effectiveness, adapting them to local tribal circumstances and culture, and evaluating results to show what changed and what worked.
Is this opportunity meant for new, untested ideas?
No. The program is centered on using evidence-based strategies that have already shown effectiveness. Applicants are expected to plan for adapting proven interventions to fit local contexts rather than inventing untested projects.
What does CDC mean by a "full cycle" of work?
The opportunity emphasizes doing the complete cycle: planning and adapting an evidence-based intervention, implementing it in the community, and evaluating outcomes to document changes and identify what worked.
What topic areas does the grant focus on?
The grant focuses on three injury-prevention areas tied to major crash risk factors: (1) reducing alcohol-impaired driving among high-risk groups, (2) increasing safety belt use where seat belt use is low, and (3) increasing child safety seat use where car seat use is low.
Do applicants have to choose only one focus area?
The announcement indicates projects are expected to concentrate on measurable behavior change in one or more of the three focus areas (alcohol-impaired driving, safety belts, and/or child safety seats).
What kinds of outcomes are projects expected to target?
Projects are expected to target measurable behavior change related to the specific risk factors named in the announcement, rather than relying only on general awareness efforts.
Are general awareness campaigns enough to meet the intent of this opportunity?
The opportunity emphasizes approaches supported by evidence and measurable behavior change, and notes that projects should not rely solely on general awareness efforts.
How important is cultural relevance in this program?
Cultural relevance and community fit are central themes. CDC signals the intent to help tribes develop evidence-based programs that account for the unique cultural contexts of Native communities, with interventions adapted thoughtfully and guided by the community while keeping the core effective elements intact.
What does it mean to "adapt" an evidence-based intervention?
Based on the announcement, adaptation means tailoring proven strategies so they align with local tribal circumstances, priorities, culture, norms, governance, and service systems, while still retaining the essential components that make the intervention effective.
What is a cooperative agreement, and how is it different from a typical grant?
This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement mechanism, which means applicants should expect substantial CDC involvement beyond a typical grant, such as technical assistance, coordination, or shared planning expectations.

Why were prior CDC pilot sites excluded?
The announcement states CDC had already funded four pilot tribal programs during 2004 to 2009 using effective strategies, so those previously funded pilot sites were not eligible to apply to this opportunity.
What is the main public health issue being addressed?
The opportunity addresses motor vehicle injuries and deaths in American Indian and Alaska Native communities by targeting major crash risk factors (alcohol-impaired driving, low safety belt use, and low child safety seat use).
How can applicants request help getting the full announcement?
CDC provided Procurement and Grants Office (TIMS) contact information for help accessing the full announcement: telephone 770-488-2700 and email PGOTIM@cdc.gov.
