Opportunity Summary:
The Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Research Centers Special Interest Project Competitive Supplements (SIPS) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-DP-09-001) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement that provides supplemental funding to existing CDC-funded Prevention Research Centers (PRCs) to carry out additional, targeted projects in health promotion and disease prevention. The core intent is to strengthen prevention research that directly addresses the leading causes of death and disability, with a clear emphasis on work that benefits underserved communities and racial and ethnic minority populations. These supplements are meant to build on the PRCs existing infrastructure and long-standing community partnerships, rather than starting entirely new centers or unrelated efforts.
A defining feature of this supplement program is its expectation that funded work improves real-world public health practice through community-based participatory research (CBPR). In practice, that means the research is not only conducted in communities, but shaped with communities: community partners help identify priorities, guide study design, support implementation, and help interpret and share findings. CDCs intent is that these projects produce practical knowledge and usable tools that local and state public health systems, community organizations, and other implementers can apply in day-to-day prevention work.
The program is strongly oriented toward applied outcomes: applicants are expected to design, test, disseminate, or translate effective public health programs at the community and state level. In other words, the supplemental projects should move beyond descriptive studies and contribute to evidence-informed interventions or implementation strategies that can be adopted, adapted, and scaled. A major focus highlighted in the announcement is the design, testing, and dissemination of effective prevention research strategies, reflecting an emphasis on taking what works and helping it reach broader populations and settings.
Eligibility is narrow and intentionally limited. Only organizations that are already funded as Prevention Research Centers under CDC Program Announcement DP09-001 may apply for these Special Interest Project supplements. This restriction is based on the PRCs established capacity to oversee prevention research and their existing, formalized relationships with community partners, which CDC views as essential for high-quality CBPR and for translating findings into practice. Foreign organizations are not eligible, and foreign components of US organizations are also not eligible.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity under the Health activity category, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. The cooperative agreement structure signals that CDC expects to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as collaboration on technical direction, oversight, or coordination activities, rather than operating strictly as a hands-off funder. The announcement listed an estimated total funding amount of $1,485,000 and an expected number of awards of 9. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated. The associated CFDA number is 93.135 (Centers for Research and Demonstration for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention).
The posting information reflects that the opportunity was posted on February 6, 2013, with a current closing date shown as March 28, 2013 (and an archive date of April 27, 2013). The submission requirements emphasize that applications had to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov and validated through eRA Commons by 5:00 PM Eastern Time by the deadline, with a strict rule that there is no additional error-correction window after the due date. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office, Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), at 770-488-2700.
Taken together, SIPS is best understood as a competitive supplement mechanism for PRCs to quickly pursue priority prevention research and implementation work that is community-engaged, equity-focused, and designed to produce interventions and strategies that can be tested and then spread into public health practice.
