Opportunity Summary:
The Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) and Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Cooperative Agreements opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA TP12 120102CONT14) is a continuation funding announcement issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically through the Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response, aligned with the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) and its National Healthcare Preparedness Programs. The overall purpose of this continuation is to sustain and advance ongoing work that strengthens the nations ability to prepare for, respond to, and recover from public health emergencies and healthcare system disruptions. Rather than launching a new competitive cycle, this announcement is structured to continue support for jurisdictions already carrying out preparedness activities under the earlier HPP and PHEP aligned cooperative agreement framework.
This opportunity is categorized as a continuation and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. In practical terms, a cooperative agreement typically means the federal government expects to have substantial involvement in the recipients work beyond standard grant oversight, often through technical assistance, collaboration on planning and performance expectations, and coordinated implementation of preparedness priorities. The activity category is health, reflecting the core focus on readiness and response capabilities that span public health agencies and healthcare delivery systems, including hospitals and broader healthcare coalitions.
The eligibility is intentionally limited. Funding is intended only for awardees previously funded under CDC RFA TP12 1201, which is the earlier aligned HPP and PHEP cooperative agreements program. The listing of eligible applicants as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)" signals that eligibility is not open to new entrants and is constrained to the existing cohort of funded recipients. In other words, this is not a general public solicitation for first-time applicants; it is designed to keep established preparedness infrastructure funded and operating without interruption.
The announcement anticipated about 50 awards, consistent with a national footprint that commonly corresponds to U.S. states, territories, and certain local jurisdictions or freely associated entities that receive preparedness funding. The total estimated funding for the budget period identified in this continuation is substantial: $840,250,000. This amount is tied to Budget Period 3, which runs from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. The funding availability for HPP and PHEP is described as being laid out in Appendices 1, 2, and 3 of the full announcement, which typically contain jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction allocation tables or formulas and may separate HPP and PHEP amounts while keeping the programs aligned.
There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients are not required to contribute a specific non-federal share to access these funds. That matters operationally because it reduces barriers for jurisdictions to maintain preparedness staffing, planning, training, exercises, and readiness investments without having to document matching contributions as a condition of award, which can be complicated in a preparedness environment where needs can shift rapidly.
The timeline details show this was posted on March 18, 2014, with an original closing date of May 9, 2014 that was later extended to May 16, 2014. The archive date is June 8, 2014, indicating the opportunity was time-bounded and is now closed. The creation date listed is May 14, 2014, which can reflect an update or administrative entry in the grants system while the announcement was active. The extension of the closing date suggests an administrative adjustment to allow additional time for required continuation submissions, corrections, or processing by recipients and the agency.
The CFDA number associated with this opportunity is 93.074, titled "Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) and Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Aligned Cooperative Agreements." This identifier is used in federal assistance reporting and is often important for recipients financial systems, audit alignment, and cataloging of federal awards. The program name itself highlights the alignment between HPP, which traditionally supports healthcare system readiness (including hospitals, healthcare coalitions, and medical surge planning), and PHEP, which traditionally supports public health preparedness capabilities (including surveillance, epidemiology, emergency operations coordination, risk communication, and community preparedness functions). The aligned structure reflects an intent to improve coordination between healthcare delivery preparedness and public health emergency management, so that response actions and resource decisions are integrated rather than siloed.
For applicants or recipients needing help obtaining the full announcement, the notice provides a direct contact at the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), including a phone number (770-488-2700) and an email address (pgotim@cdc.gov). This is particularly relevant for continuation opportunities, where recipients may need clarification on submission requirements, budget period guidance, or technical access issues related to downloading or submitting materials in the federal grants portal environment.
Taken together, this funding opportunity can be understood as a large-scale, nationally distributed continuation investment intended to keep existing HPP and PHEP preparedness programs operating during Budget Period 3 (July 2014 to June 2015). It is not a new competition, does not require cost sharing, and is aimed at maintaining and improving the preparedness capabilities of already-funded jurisdictions through a cooperative agreement model that emphasizes ongoing collaboration and performance-driven preparedness work.
