Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Maintaining Collection of National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) Data" (referenced as CDC RFA CE08-802 and listed under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CE13-1311) is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement aimed at keeping a consistent, high-quality stream of violent death surveillance data flowing from a specific set of states that were already building NVDRS capacity. NVDRS is a public health surveillance system designed to produce accurate, timely, and comprehensive information about violent deaths, with the larger goal of helping communities and agencies prevent violence and ultimately reduce the number of people who die from violent causes. Rather than relying on a single source of information, NVDRS is built around combining multiple official records into one standardized, more complete incident-based account of what happened and why.
At the core of this funding is the expectation that recipients will continue and strengthen their ability to collect detailed, standardized descriptions of violent deaths by integrating data across death certificates, coroner reports, medical examiner reports, and law enforcement reports. That integration matters because each source typically captures different parts of the story: death certificates can provide basic demographic and cause-of-death coding, medical examiner or coroner records can add injury details and toxicology findings, and law enforcement reports can clarify circumstances such as relationship dynamics, precipitating events, or the presence of other crimes. By supporting the infrastructure needed to pull these sources together consistently, the FOA is essentially funding states to maintain an operational surveillance program that can deliver reliable, comparable information year after year.
A major emphasis is not just collecting the data, but disseminating it in ways that are useful to prevention partners. The announcement highlights sharing NVDRS data with key stakeholders such as community organizations, government agencies, and the general public so they can understand the magnitude, trends, and characteristics of violent deaths in their jurisdictions. The idea is that better visibility into who is dying, under what circumstances, and where patterns are emerging helps decision-makers select and target prevention strategies more effectively, implement them in a more informed way, and then evaluate whether those efforts are working. In practice, this could include informing suicide prevention planning, firearm injury prevention efforts, intimate partner violence interventions, or programs addressing youth violence, depending on what the surveillance data show in a given state.
This is a limited-eligibility opportunity. Only seven state health departments that had previously been funded to implement NVDRS in 2008 are eligible to apply: Alaska, Colorado, Georgia, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. The limitation is intentional and tied to three purposes stated in the eligibility notes: maintaining comparability of data from a consistent group of states over time so trends can be assessed more quickly; preserving and using the infrastructure already created for violent death data collection; and maximizing public health spending by building on the experience and work those states have already invested in NVDRS implementation.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is offered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under CFDA 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs). It uses a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally indicates substantial programmatic involvement by the CDC compared to a standard grant, often through technical guidance, performance expectations, and collaboration around surveillance standards and reporting. The FOA anticipated 7 awards (consistent with the 7 eligible states). Estimated total funding is listed as $1,343,595, with individual award amounts ranging from an award floor of $100,000 to an award ceiling of $240,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated.
The posting and timing details show the opportunity was posted June 18, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 22, 2013, and an archive date of August 21, 2013.

What is the main purpose of this specific funding opportunity?
The main purpose is to maintain a consistent, high-quality stream of violent death surveillance data from a specific set of states that were already building NVDRS capacity. The funding supports recipients in continuing and strengthening their ability to collect detailed, standardized descriptions of violent deaths over time.
Why does NVDRS combine multiple data sources instead of relying on a single record?
NVDRS is built around integrating multiple official records into one standardized, more complete incident-based account of what happened and why. Different sources capture different parts of the story, so combining them produces a more comprehensive picture.
What data sources are expected to be integrated under this award?
Recipients are expected to integrate information across death certificates, coroner reports, medical examiner reports, and law enforcement reports.
What kinds of details can death certificates contribute to NVDRS?
Death certificates can provide basic demographic information and cause-of-death coding.
What kinds of details can medical examiner or coroner reports contribute to NVDRS?
Medical examiner or coroner records can add injury details and toxicology findings.
What kinds of details can law enforcement reports contribute to NVDRS?
Law enforcement reports can clarify circumstances such as relationship dynamics, precipitating events, or the presence of other crimes.
Is the focus only on collecting data, or also on sharing it?
The opportunity emphasizes both collecting the data and disseminating it in ways that are useful to prevention partners.
Who are the intended audiences or stakeholders for NVDRS data sharing?
The announcement highlights sharing NVDRS data with key stakeholders such as community organizations, government agencies, and the general public.
How is the shared data intended to be used?
The data are intended to help stakeholders understand the magnitude, trends, and characteristics of violent deaths within their jurisdictions so they can better select and target prevention strategies, implement informed interventions, and evaluate whether those efforts are working.
What are examples of prevention areas that NVDRS data could inform?
Examples mentioned include suicide prevention planning, firearm injury prevention efforts, intimate partner violence interventions, and programs addressing youth violence, depending on what the surveillance data show in a given state.
Is eligibility open to all applicants?
