Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Initiatives to Educate State Officials and Policy Makers about Priority Public Health Issues Related to the Prevention and Control of STDs and HIV/AIDS, NCHHSTP," is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continuation grant designed to support ongoing efforts that help state officials and policymakers better understand and act on key public health issues tied to sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV/AIDS prevention and control. It sits within the CDC's National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) mission area and is structured to strengthen the translation of public health evidence into policy awareness, decision-making, and informed state-level action.
Administratively, this opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS11-111802CONT12 and is categorized as "Continuation" funding, meaning it is not a new open competition. The eligibility is restricted: only organizations that were previously awarded funding under the earlier announcement PS11-1118 (with the same title) are allowed to apply for this continuation. In practice, that means the CDC intended this announcement to extend or sustain already-funded projects rather than launch brand-new initiatives or bring in new applicants. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that CDC expects to have substantial involvement beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on project direction, providing technical input, or working closely with recipients on implementation and outcomes.
From a program perspective, the grant focuses on initiatives that educate and engage state decision-makers around priority issues in STD and HIV/AIDS prevention and control. While the short listing does not spell out specific required activities, the framing suggests support for structured education, briefings, dissemination of public health data, and policy-relevant communications aimed at state leaders and policymakers. The overall intent is typically to improve policymakers' understanding of disease burden, prevention strategies, and effective interventions so that policy choices, resource allocation, and legislative or administrative actions are better aligned with evidence-based public health approaches.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA 93.977, "Preventive Health Services - Sexually Transmitted Diseases Control Grants," and falls under the Health activity category. The CDC anticipated making about 10 awards under this continuation notice. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so recipients were not expected to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Key dates indicate the announcement was posted and created on February 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 9, 2012, and an archive date of May 9, 2012. These dates confirm it was a time-limited continuation solicitation tied to an existing funding cycle. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the CDC provided a point of contact through PGOTIMS, including a phone number (770-488-2700) and email (pgotim@cdc.gov), which is typical for technical or access issues related to the posted application materials.
In short, this is a CDC cooperative agreement continuation designed to maintain and advance ongoing, previously funded work that educates state officials and policymakers about high-priority STD and HIV/AIDS prevention and control issues, with the broader aim of improving policy literacy and supporting public health-informed decision-making at the state level.
