Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Funded Community Health Centers and Title X Programs" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA DD10-1006), was a CDC discretionary funding announcement offered as a cooperative agreement in the health category. Its central goal was to expand the reach of the Project CHOICES intervention by adapting and implementing it across a wide range of real-world public health settings, especially those serving large numbers of women who are at risk for an alcohol-exposed pregnancy (AEP). In practical terms, the CDC was looking to take an evidence-based intervention and support organizations in integrating it into routine services in clinics and programs that already have consistent contact with the target population.
The opportunity was designed specifically around the service networks supported by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and Title X family planning programs. HRSA-funded community health centers, which operate under the Health Center Program (Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act), are positioned to provide comprehensive care in medically underserved communities and to vulnerable populations. The announcement highlights that these centers commonly deliver services such as gynecology and obstetrics care, family planning, and sexually transmitted disease (STD) services, often blending multiple state and federal funding sources. Title X programs, funded under Section 1001 of the Public Health Service Act, support voluntary family planning projects that provide a broad range of effective family planning methods along with related preventive health services. By anchoring eligibility and implementation in these systems, the FOA aimed to embed Project CHOICES where it could be sustained and scaled through existing clinical workflows and patient relationships.
Eligibility was narrowly focused. Applicants needed to be local health departments (city and/or county public health entities) that both (1) receive HRSA funding under the Health Center Program statute to support comprehensive community health centers and (2) receive funding from Title X grantees under Section 1001. The announcement also allowed for applications from a "Bona Fide Agent," meaning an agency or organization designated by a state as eligible to apply on the state's behalf; however, a bona fide agent application required documentation, specifically a letter from the state or local government verifying that status. While the listed eligible applicants category was "Others (see text field...)," the detailed eligibility language makes it clear that only a specific subset of public health entities connected to HRSA-funded health centers and Title X funding streams were intended to apply.
Funding for the program was substantial but limited in the number of awards. The CDC anticipated making about 5 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $4,000,000. The award ceiling was listed as $275,000, and the award floor was $0, indicating that budgets could vary depending on the scope proposed and available funds, though no formal minimum was established. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally lowers the barrier for participation by organizations that may not have flexible local dollars to contribute.
The timeline shows this was a time-limited, archived opportunity. It was posted and created on May 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 21, 2010. The archive date was July 21, 2010, meaning the competition concluded long ago and is provided now as historical reference rather than an active funding source. The CFDA number associated with the award was 93.283, labeled "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Investigations and Technical Assistance," which signals the programmatic focus on applying public health evidence and technical approaches rather than purely service delivery reimbursement.
Because the funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, recipients would typically be expected to work closely with CDC staff during implementation. Cooperative agreements usually involve substantial federal involvement, such as collaboration on program design adaptations, performance monitoring, evaluation activities, dissemination of lessons learned, and alignment with evidence-based standards. Although the excerpt does not list specific required activities or deliverables, the stated purpose strongly implies implementation support, adaptation for diverse settings, and likely evaluation of uptake and outcomes as Project CHOICES is integrated into clinical and public health service environments.
For applicants or members of the public who needed access to the full announcement at the time, the contact listed was the CDC Procurement and Grants Office, with a phone number (770-488-2700) and email (pgotim@cdc.gov).
