Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, numbered CDC-RFA-GH11-115304CONT14, is a continuation cooperative agreement administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Its focus is on expanding service coverage and improving the quality of prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV activities delivered through both facility-based and community-based platforms in two regions of Cameroon. In practical terms, the effort is aimed at strengthening how health facilities and community networks work together to prevent HIV transmission from pregnant and breastfeeding women to their infants, while also improving program performance and the consistency of service delivery.

The opportunity falls under the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS). The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC would expect to have substantial involvement in the project beyond standard grant oversight, such as collaboration on technical approaches, monitoring, evaluation, and implementation support. The announcement lists an expected number of awards of one, reflecting that this was designed to continue an existing award rather than create a new competition among multiple applicants.

Eligibility is highly restricted. The announcement states that the award is intended only for recipients previously funded under the earlier related announcement GH11-1153, which carried the same PMTCT expansion and quality improvement objective in Cameroon. Because it is a continuation action, new organizations that were not already funded under the original GH11-1153 award would not be eligible to apply. The posting date and creation date were both March 3, 2014, with an original and current closing date of March 31, 2014, and an archive date of April 30, 2014.

The notice indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement. The estimated total funding amount is shown as 0 in the source data, which often appears in continuation announcements when the total is determined through internal budgeting, incremental funding decisions, or is otherwise not displayed in the public synopsis. The overall intent is still clear: to sustain and advance PMTCT programming in two Cameroonian regions by increasing reach and improving the quality of services delivered at health facilities and through community engagement mechanisms, consistent with PEPFAR goals to reduce new pediatric HIV infections and improve maternal and child health outcomes.

For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO) at 770-488-2700 or via email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
