Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "Increase Awareness of Alveolar Capillary Dysplasia (ACD) Among Health Care Providers" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DD10 1008), is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary funding program offered through a cooperative agreement. Its central goal is to improve recognition and speed up diagnosis of alveolar capillary dysplasia (ACD), a rare and often life-threatening condition affecting newborns, by creating and distributing targeted awareness and educational materials to clinicians most likely to encounter these cases, specifically neonatologists and pediatric intensive care physicians. The project is aligned with the Healthy People 2010 priority area of Maternal, Infant and Child Health, reflecting a broader public health interest in improving early identification of serious conditions in infants and strengthening clinical responsiveness in neonatal and pediatric critical care settings.

The CDC anticipated making a single award under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. The award ceiling is $200,000 and the award floor is $150,000, indicating the project was expected to be a relatively focused, time-bound effort rather than a large multi-site initiative. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier to applying and allows applicants to propose a project primarily supported by federal funds. The program falls under CFDA 93.073, "Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities Prevention and Surveillance," signaling that the work is positioned within CDC efforts related to rare conditions, developmental outcomes, and improved detection and surveillance practices.

Because the funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the CDC typically expects substantial involvement with the recipient during the project. In practical terms, this commonly means the awardee may coordinate with CDC staff on key deliverables, messaging accuracy, dissemination plans, or evaluation approaches, especially when the outputs are public-facing health communication materials aimed at clinical decision-making and awareness.

Eligibility for the opportunity was broad and included a wide range of organizations that could plausibly produce and disseminate provider-facing educational resources. Eligible applicants included nonprofits (both with and without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education in those specific nonprofit categories), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, tribal governments and tribal organizations (including Alaska Native health corporations, Urban Indian health organizations, and tribal epidemiology centers), and state and local governments along with their bona fide agents. The announcement also permitted non-U.S. entities to apply. For applicants submitting as a bona fide agent on behalf of a state or local government, documentation was required in the form of a letter confirming that status, to be included with the application materials submitted through Grants.gov.

The timeline for the opportunity shows it was posted and created on April 30, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2010, and an archive date of July 14, 2010. These dates indicate a standard, relatively short federal application window, consistent with a single-award communications and awareness project intended to be implemented promptly.

Overall, the opportunity was designed to produce practical awareness tools and distribute them directly to specialized frontline providers in neonatal and pediatric intensive care. The intended public health outcome is earlier suspicion and faster diagnosis of ACD in clinical settings where critically ill newborns are evaluated, which can reduce diagnostic delays and improve decision-making for care teams and families. For administrative or access questions, the CDC Procurement and Grants Office was the listed contact point, with phone support and an email address provided (770-488-2700; pgotim@cdc.gov).
