Opportunity Summary:
The HIV/AIDS Policy Initiative: Building State, County and Local Public Health Infrastructure (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS10-1045) is a CDC-funded cooperative agreement designed to strengthen the flow of practical, real-world HIV prevention information between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local public health leaders, and also among local public health leaders themselves. The core idea is that county and local health officials often develop, adapt, and implement HIV prevention strategies under different legal, political, and resource conditions, so creating a structured way to share what is working on the ground can speed up the adoption of effective approaches and improve consistency in local HIV prevention practice.
A central focus of this opportunity is policy and practice exchange, not simply distributing general educational materials. The program is meant to surface and spread locally effective HIV prevention programs, promising practices, and policy approaches, including “best practices†in HIV/AIDS prevention activities. It emphasizes helping jurisdictions adapt best practices to fit local circumstances rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all model. In practical terms, this can include sharing lessons learned about implementing HIV prevention initiatives in different community settings, identifying barriers that local agencies face, and highlighting policies that measurably support prevention goals. The opportunity explicitly connects to Healthy People 2010, Focus Area 13 (HIV), indicating that the work is expected to support national HIV prevention objectives through improved local implementation and policy action.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement beyond simply issuing funds. While the announcement text provided does not list specific required activities line by line, the cooperative agreement structure generally signals ongoing collaboration, technical interaction, and coordinated planning between CDC and the recipient to ensure the information exchange functions effectively and aligns with federal prevention priorities. The program’s purpose statement makes clear that the recipient would act as a conduit: translating local experiences and perspectives for CDC, and translating CDC guidance, evidence, and emerging priorities back out to local health officials in ways that are usable for day-to-day decision-making.
Eligibility is narrowly targeted. Applicants must be county/local public health member associations, and they must have demonstrated ability to reach a broad constituency of public health officials while treating HIV prevention as a priority issue. CDC also indicates it is beneficial if the association has a systematic way to gather local perspectives, concerns, and “on-the-ground practice realities†that shape HIV prevention policies and practices. This matters because the initiative is not only about broadcasting information; it is also about collecting feedback from local public health agencies and using that feedback to inform policy discussions, identify implementation challenges, and refine approaches. To maximize the use of federal funds, the funded organization must have a constituency base that is national in scope, suggesting CDC wants a single, nationwide association capable of distributing insights across many jurisdictions rather than a regional or state-limited group.
Financially, the opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000. The award size is relatively modest per budget period, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $80,000, implying funding may be structured across multiple periods or budget years even though only one recipient is expected. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers to participation for eligible associations and allows the recipient to focus resources on convening, communication infrastructure, and dissemination activities rather than raising non-federal match.
Key administrative details reflect that this was a time-limited, discretionary funding opportunity posted April 20, 2010, created May 19, 2010, and closing June 7, 2010 (with an original closing date of June 20, 2010). It was archived July 7, 2010. The CFDA number listed is 93.118 (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Activity), confirming the program’s alignment with federal HIV/AIDS prevention funding streams. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, CDC directed applicants to the Procurement and Grants Office, Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), at 770-488-2700.
Overall, this grant opportunity is best understood as an infrastructure and coordination investment rather than a direct service delivery award. The recipient association would be expected to strengthen channels for practical HIV prevention knowledge sharing, elevate local innovations and effective policies, and help local agencies adapt proven prevention strategies, all while keeping the work aligned with national HIV objectives under Healthy People 2010.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the HIV/AIDS Policy Initiative: Building State, County and Local Public Health Infrastructure (CDC RFA PS10-1045)?
This opportunity is a CDC-funded cooperative agreement focused on strengthening the flow of practical, real-world HIV prevention information. The goal is to improve how HIV prevention knowledge moves (1) between CDC and local public health leaders and (2) among local public health leaders themselves, so effective approaches can spread faster and local practice can become more consistent.
What is the main purpose of this funding opportunity?
The main purpose is policy and practice exchange. Rather than simply distributing general educational materials, the initiative is intended to surface, share, and spread locally effective HIV prevention programs, promising practices, and policy approaches, including best practices in HIV/AIDS prevention activities.
Is this grant meant to fund direct HIV prevention services?
Based on the description provided, this is best understood as an infrastructure and coordination investment, not a direct service delivery award. It emphasizes building and strengthening channels that help public health leaders share implementation knowledge, lessons learned, and policy approaches.
What does “policy and practice exchange†mean in this context?
It means creating a structured way for local and county health leaders to share what is working on the ground, under real legal, political, and resource conditions. The exchange is meant to support practical decision-making, identify barriers, and highlight policies and practices that measurably support HIV prevention goals.
Why is local-to-local sharing emphasized?
County and local health officials often develop and implement HIV prevention strategies under very different conditions. A structured exchange helps reduce duplication, speeds adoption of effective approaches, and improves consistency by letting jurisdictions learn directly from one another’s implementation experience.
How does the initiative treat “best practices�
The initiative emphasizes helping jurisdictions adapt best practices to fit local circumstances rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all model. The focus is on practical adaptation and usability for day-to-day local decision-making.
