Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) through the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), focuses on supporting HIV prevention projects serving two priority populations: young men of color who have sex with men (often shortened to YMSM of Color) and young transgender persons of color (YTG Persons of Color). The overall intent is to strengthen and continue targeted prevention efforts for groups that have historically faced a disproportionate burden of HIV due to a mix of structural barriers, health inequities, and limited access to culturally responsive prevention and care services. The activity category is health, and the listing is tied to CFDA 93.939, which covers HIV prevention activities.
The announcement is labeled as a continuation opportunity rather than an open, competitive solicitation. The funding opportunity number is CDC RFA PS11-111304CONT14, and the opportunity category is explicitly marked as “Continuation.†In practical terms, that means the CDC was not seeking brand-new applicants; instead, it was providing a pathway to continue previously funded work under the earlier FOA, PS11-1113. Eligibility is therefore restricted to organizations that already held awards under PS11-1113 for HIV prevention projects serving YMSM of Color and YTG Persons of Color. The “Eligible Applicants†field is broadly described as “Others,†but the eligibility statement clarifies that only prior grantees from the original PS11-1113 awards can receive these continuation funds.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a more active role for CDC involvement compared with a standard grant. While a typical grant often allows the recipient to operate more independently as long as they meet objectives and reporting requirements, a cooperative agreement commonly involves substantial federal programmatic involvement, such as technical assistance, collaboration on implementation approaches, shared evaluation expectations, and closer coordination with CDC priorities. The award type is also shown as “Grant,†but the instrument type being a cooperative agreement is the more telling detail about how CDC expects to partner with recipients during the project period.
Administrative details in the source data show the opportunity was posted and created on March 19, 2014, with an original and current closing date of April 21, 2014, and an archive date of May 21, 2014. The expected number of awards is listed as 50, suggesting CDC anticipated continuing funding across a sizable cohort of existing grantees. The record indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of award. The financial fields for estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor are displayed as zero in the dataset provided, which usually reflects that the public summary record did not include dollar amounts rather than implying that no money was available.
For organizations that needed help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), with a phone number (770-488-2700) and email (pgotim@cdc.gov). Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a CDC continuation funding action designed to maintain momentum and sustain ongoing, targeted HIV prevention work for YMSM of Color and young transgender persons of color through established, previously selected grantees working in alignment with NCHHSTP prevention priorities.
