Opportunity Summary:
The Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Research Centers Special Interest Project Competitive Supplements (SIPs) opportunity is a CDC discretionary funding announcement that provides supplemental support to existing Prevention Research Centers (PRCs) so they can carry out additional, targeted applied prevention research projects. The work supported under these supplements is meant to strengthen practical, real-world public health solutions by helping PRCs design, test, and spread strategies that prevent disease and reduce disability. The emphasis is on applied prevention research approaches such as behavioral interventions, environmental changes, system-wide improvements, and other strategies that tackle major drivers of chronic disease and disability in communities.
A key administrative point is that the listed funding opportunity number, RFA DP 14 0010101SUPP14, is explicitly labeled as informational only and was replaced by a newer announcement, RFA DP 14 011. Applicants were directed to retrieve the current instructions and application package by searching for RFA DP 14 011 on Grants.gov rather than applying under the older reference number. For technical problems accessing or using the application materials, the notice directs people to contact the CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management Section (PGO TIMS) at pgotim@cdc.gov or by phone at 770-488-2700.
This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, which generally means CDC expects to have substantial involvement with recipients during the project period (for example, collaboration, guidance, or coordination activities), rather than providing funds with minimal ongoing interaction. The activity category is health, and the CFDA listing is 93.135 (Centers for Research and Demonstration for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention). The announcement indicated an estimated total funding amount of $70,464,000 and anticipated up to 66 awards, though the posting also shows an award ceiling and floor of $0 in the data fields (which typically signals that the specific award amounts vary by project area and are defined elsewhere in the full solicitation, such as in the SIP-specific descriptions).
Eligibility is tightly restricted. Only organizations already funded as PRCs under CDC Program Announcement DP14-001 are eligible to compete for these SIP supplemental funds. The rationale provided is that PRCs have established infrastructure and strong community partnerships, positioning them to perform, oversee, and coordinate applied public health research and to translate findings into practice. Foreign organizations cannot apply directly, and foreign components of U.S. organizations are also not eligible to apply directly. However, applicants may include foreign collaborators or consultants, with a limitation that no more than 10% of the funding may be used for foreign consultants and collaborators, and all applicable federal laws and policies still apply. The notice also indicates that additional special eligibility requirements may apply depending on the specific SIP topic area, as described in the SIP descriptions section of the full announcement.
The timeline provided in the announcement included a Letter of Intent due March 24, 2014, and an application due date of April 24, 2014, by 5:00 PM U.S. Eastern Time. The opportunity was posted February 25, 2014, with an archive date of May 24, 2014. It also notes responsiveness criteria: an application would be considered responsive only if it complied with the key eligibility and submission requirements and if the proposed budget for the budget year did not exceed the ceiling amount for the specific SIP. Applications deemed unresponsive would not move forward into peer review, and applicants would be notified if submission requirements were not met.
Overall, this program is best understood as a CDC mechanism to quickly add focused resources to established Prevention Research Centers so they can pursue priority, special-interest prevention projects with practical public health impact, while relying on the PRCs existing community-connected research capacity to develop, evaluate, and disseminate interventions and policy/system solutions.
