Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA GH12-1233) was a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on strengthening HIV care and treatment services for vulnerable populations in Southwestern and Western China by actively engaging local non governmental organizations (NGOs). The program sat under the leadership of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator and reflected PEPFARs broader approach: CDC, together with host-country partners, would assess local needs and then support a tailored package of assistance that aligns with the host nations HIV strategy and partnership framework. In practical terms, the opportunity aimed to build on-country capacity by positioning local Chinese organizations as implementers and partners in delivering higher-quality HIV clinical and support services, rather than relying primarily on outside entities.
The award mechanism was a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC would have substantial involvement beyond simply issuing funds. Recipients could generally expect closer collaboration with CDC on planning, implementation, monitoring, and quality improvement compared with a standard grant. The activity category was health, and the CFDA number was 93.067 (Global AIDS), indicating it was part of the U.S. global HIV response portfolio.
CDC anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,400,000. The listed award ceiling was $500,000 and the award floor was $0, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, reducing the financial barrier for eligible organizations. The notice was posted on April 23, 2012, created April 27, 2012, and closed May 14, 2012, with the opportunity archived June 13, 2012, indicating a relatively short application window typical of some time-limited public health funding announcements.
Eligibility was centered on local and indigenous organizations based in China and associated regions, reflecting the goal of empowering local implementers. Eligible applicants included Chinese local indigenous private and public nonprofit organizations, Chinese local indigenous private and public for-profit organizations, small businesses in China, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. The announcement also extended eligibility to Chinese local organizations in Hong Kong and Macau. In addition, the opportunity allowed applications by a bona fide agent applying on behalf of a state or local government entity, but only with formal documentation: a legal, binding agreement from the relevant government confirming that status, to be attached as part of the submission package through Grants.gov.
Operationally, the program focus was on the provision of high quality HIV care and treatment, with an emphasis on vulnerable populations in the specified regions of China. While the summary information provided does not enumerate specific required interventions, the title and framing signal expected activities such as improving clinical service delivery and quality, strengthening linkages to care for at-risk groups, and building NGO capacity to participate meaningfully in the local HIV response in ways that fit national and regional plans. Because it was a PEPFAR-related cooperative agreement administered by CDC, applicants would typically need to demonstrate the ability to work within performance-based public health programming, including data collection and reporting, collaboration with government and other partners, and adherence to applicable technical standards for HIV treatment and care.
For administrative and technical assistance related to accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was the CDC Procurements and Grants Office (PGO) at 770-488-2700 or pgotim@cdc.gov.
