Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Increasing Adolescent Immunization Rates through Healthcare Provider Partnerships" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA IP12-1202) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary funding program offered through a cooperative agreement. Its core purpose is straightforward: to develop and implement practical, provider-driven programs that directly increase adolescent immunization rates. The emphasis is on healthcare providers as the main vehicle for change, meaning proposed projects are expected to work through clinical settings and provider partnerships to improve vaccination delivery, uptake, and completion among adolescents. The opportunity also aligns with Healthy People 2020 priorities focused on immunization outcomes for adolescents, signaling that applicants should connect their project goals and evaluation measures to recognized national public health targets.

From a funding and scale perspective, the CDC anticipated making 3 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total program funding amount of $1,575,000. The stated award ceiling is $175,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial burden on applicants and makes the award more accessible to organizations that may not have large pools of flexible funding. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally implies substantial federal involvement compared to a standard grant; in practice, this often means recipients should be prepared to coordinate closely with CDC staff on implementation approaches, reporting, performance measures, and possibly technical assistance activities.

The program falls under the health activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.185, which covers immunization-related research, demonstration, public information and education, as well as training and clinical skills improvement projects. That framing suggests projects can include a range of evidence-informed interventions, as long as they clearly and directly aim to raise adolescent vaccination rates and are executed in partnership with healthcare providers. While the short description does not list specific allowable activities, the repeated focus on provider efforts indicates that strong applications would likely center on clinic-based strategies such as improving immunization practices, strengthening provider recommendation behaviors, reducing missed opportunities for vaccination during visits, improving reminder and recall processes, and using data and quality improvement methods to drive measurable increases in coverage.

Eligibility is restricted by statute. The program is authorized under Section 317(k)(1) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247b(k)(1), as amended). Under that authority, for-profit entities and non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities are not eligible. Eligible applicants are limited to organizations that qualify as states, political divisions of states, other public entities, or nonprofit entities. The eligible categories explicitly include nonprofit organizations (with or without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), nonprofit small/minority/women-owned businesses (nonprofit only), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. It also includes a wide range of eligible Tribal entities and Tribal-serving organizations, such as federally or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments, tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native health corporations, urban Indian health organizations, and Tribal epidemiology centers. This broad nonprofit and public-sector eligibility list indicates the CDC intended the program to be accessible to diverse organizations with the ability to engage healthcare providers and implement immunization improvement strategies in real-world settings.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted on May 1, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 15, 2012. The archive date was July 15, 2012. Those dates indicate this is an archived opportunity rather than an open competition, but the program structure and eligibility rules are still useful for understanding how CDC has historically funded provider-partnership approaches to adolescent immunization improvement.
