Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Improving Immunization Collaboration Among Pharmacists and Other Healthcare Providers" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA IP15-1504PPHF15) was a CDC discretionary funding announcement offered as a cooperative agreement. It was financed solely by the Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) using 2015 Prevention and Public Health Funds, and it fell under the broader public health activity area tied to immunization infrastructure and performance (CFDA 93.733, "Capacity Building Assistance to Strengthen Public Health Immunization Infrastructure and Performance"). In practical terms, the opportunity was designed to strengthen how pharmacists work alongside other healthcare providers to improve immunization delivery, coordination, and overall vaccination system performance.
CDC anticipated making 2 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,600,000. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $500,000 to a ceiling of $800,000. The announcement did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which typically lowers the barrier to entry for applicants and allows organizations to focus resources on implementing the proposed collaboration and immunization improvement activities rather than securing additional required funding.
Eligibility was broadly defined as unrestricted across many applicant types, subject to any clarifications that would have been included in the full announcement text under "Additional Information on Eligibility." The eligible applicant categories listed included state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, and independent school districts, as well as tribal governments (both federally recognized and other tribal organizations). It also included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education, along with a wide range of nonprofit and for-profit entities: 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education), nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), small businesses, and other for-profit organizations. Public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities were also listed as eligible. Overall, the eligibility language signaled that CDC was open to partnering with many different kinds of organizations that could credibly carry out immunization collaboration work involving pharmacists and other providers.
Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted on June 6, 2015, with a creation date of June 11, 2015. The original and current closing date were both July 27, 2015, and the opportunity was archived on August 26, 2015, indicating it is no longer open for applications. The sponsoring agency was the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the funding instrument type being a cooperative agreement suggests that recipients would have been expected to work closely with CDC, with federal involvement that is typically more active than in a standard grant, often including collaboration on project direction, technical assistance, and performance monitoring.
For technical issues accessing the full announcement, CDC directed inquiries to the Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), located at 2960 Brandywine Road, Atlanta, GA 30341, with phone number 770-488-2700, fax 770-488-8350, and email PGOTIM@cdc.gov.
