Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) and Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Cooperative Agreements / PHEP Supplemental for Ebola Preparedness and Response Activities," is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement supplement created in response to Ebola virus disease (EVD) being treated as a major national public health priority. The core purpose is to rapidly strengthen the ability of public health agencies and their partners to plan for, prepare for, and respond to potential Ebola cases and related public health incidents. Rather than establishing a brand-new program for new applicants, CDC structured this as supplemental support to speed up and expand work already being carried out under the existing PHEP cooperative agreement framework.
Eligibility is tightly limited. Only the current 62 PHEP awardees funded under FOA TP12 1201 are allowed to apply, which includes U.S. states, select large local jurisdictions (such as certain major cities and counties), and U.S. territories and freely associated states listed in the announcement (for example, jurisdictions such as New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles County, Puerto Rico, Guam, and others). While the general eligibility categories shown include state, county, and city or township governments, the practical eligibility rule is that applicants must already be one of the specified PHEP recipients. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers to quickly putting the funds to use for readiness activities.
The program’s intent is focused on four connected outcomes. First, it aims to accelerate Ebola-specific preparedness planning within state, local, territorial, and tribal public health systems, meaning jurisdictions are expected to move quickly from general all-hazards plans to concrete, Ebola-ready procedures. Second, it is designed to improve and assure operational readiness, emphasizing practical capabilities such as protocols, staffing, training, coordination, and operational workflows that can be activated quickly. Third, it supports actual public health response efforts tied to Ebola, enabling jurisdictions to implement response actions if needed rather than only drafting plans. Fourth, it explicitly requires collaboration and coordination with the healthcare system to help build and support a tiered approach to Ebola patient care, reflecting the real-world need for aligned plans between public health agencies, emergency medical services, hospitals, and specialized treatment or assessment facilities so that suspected or confirmed patients can be identified, transported, evaluated, and managed safely.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement through technical assistance, guidance, and close coordination during implementation, not merely a hands-off grant. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA TP12 12010302SUPP15, was posted January 15, 2015, and had a very short turnaround for applications, with an original closing date of February 20, 2015 and a current closing date of February 21, 2015. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was later archived on March 22, 2015.
In terms of funding scale, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $2,338,710. It also provides an award floor of $104,444 and an award ceiling of $9,232,987, signaling that award amounts could vary widely across jurisdictions based on factors like risk, population, existing capacity, and identified needs. The expected number of awards is 62, aligning with the fact that only the existing 62 PHEP awardees were eligible to receive these supplemental funds. The CFDA listing associated with the aligned HPP and PHEP cooperative agreements is 93.074, and the activity category is health.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a time-sensitive CDC effort to push Ebola preparedness faster and deeper across already-funded preparedness jurisdictions, with strong emphasis on operational readiness and on synchronized planning between public health and healthcare delivery systems so that Ebola-related events could be managed safely, consistently, and efficiently.
