Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA PS10-10142) is a PEPFAR-supported cooperative agreement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focused on strengthening the Dominican Republics capacity to implement science-based HIV prevention and related interventions specifically for men who have sex with men (MSM). In line with PEPFARs overall approach, the opportunity sits under the leadership of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator and emphasizes collaboration with host-country leadership and partners. The core idea is that CDC, working alongside national stakeholders and other key partners, supports programs that are tailored to the Dominican Republics strategic plan and partnership framework, rather than a one-size-fits-all model. The emphasis on "science-based interventions" signals an expectation that funded activities draw on proven public health approaches, are implemented with fidelity, and are set up in a way that allows for practical monitoring of progress and outcomes.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which usually means CDC expects to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as technical assistance, joint planning, and oversight aligned with PEPFAR priorities. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number is 93.067 (Global AIDS). CDC anticipated making about three awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,250,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between an award floor of $75,000 and an award ceiling of $250,000, indicating support for multiple implementers or multiple complementary program components rather than a single large nationwide award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated, so applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility was broad and intentionally inclusive, covering public and private nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations (including small, minority-, and women-owned businesses), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, and government entities. It also included federally recognized tribal organizations and related tribal entities, as well as state and local governments and their Bona Fide Agents. The announcement also allowed non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities to apply, which is relevant for work centered in the Dominican Republic and can enable local organizations or regional implementers to compete directly if they meet the application requirements. For applicants applying as a Bona Fide Agent of a state or local government, the notice specifies that documentation is required: a letter from the relevant state or local government must be attached as proof of that status when submitting through Grants.gov.
Key timeline details reflect the administrative lifecycle of the opportunity. The posting date was January 15, 2010, with a creation date of February 11, 2010. The original closing date was March 16, 2010, later extended to a current closing date of April 30, 2010. The archive date was May 30, 2010, meaning the announcement was no longer active after that point. For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, CDC provided a point of contact through PGO TIMS grants at 770-488-2700 and a general email contact (listed as "GENERAL E MAIL" in the source data).
In practical terms, the opportunity was meant to expand and improve the ability of implementing partners in the Dominican Republic to deliver and scale interventions that reduce HIV risk and improve health outcomes among MSM, a population that often faces elevated HIV vulnerability and structural barriers to services. While the excerpted source text does not list specific required activities, the title and PEPFAR/CDC framing strongly imply support for targeted prevention and capacity-building work rooted in evidence, aligned with national plans, and implemented in coordination with government and other partners.
