Opportunity Summary:

The National Network to Enhance Capacity of State and Local Sexually Transmitted Disease Prevention Programs (NNECS) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) grant opportunity under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). It is focused on strengthening the ability of state and local sexually transmitted disease (STD) prevention programs to plan, deliver, and improve STD prevention activities. The opportunity sits in the public health and health services space and is intended to support a coordinated national effort that helps jurisdictions build and maintain the practical capacity needed to prevent and control STDs.

This announcement is listed as a continuation opportunity, meaning it is designed to extend or continue an existing line of work rather than launch a brand-new competitive program from scratch. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a more hands-on partnership between CDC and the recipient than a standard grant. In practice, cooperative agreements often involve substantial CDC involvement in areas like program direction, technical assistance, coordination, performance monitoring, and aligning activities with national public health priorities. The overall activity category is health, and the associated CFDA number is 93.977, which corresponds to CDC-related public health assistance for STD prevention and control activities.

The eligible applicant category is labeled as "Others," with eligibility details referenced in an additional information field (not provided in the excerpt). That wording usually signals that eligibility may be limited to specific types of organizations or entities defined elsewhere in the full announcement, such as certain nonprofit organizations, professional associations, academic institutions, or other partners capable of operating a national network function and providing structured support to government health departments.

Key administrative details include the funding opportunity title and number, which are National Network to Enhance Capacity of State and Local Sexually Transmitted Disease Prevention Programs (NNECS) and CDC RFA PS13 130904CONT16, respectively. The posting and creation dates are both March 16, 2016, and the closing date listed is May 16, 2016 (with both original and current closing dates the same). The award ceiling is shown as 0 in the provided data, which commonly means the ceiling was not specified in this particular summary record, was determined elsewhere in the full funding announcement, or varied based on available appropriations and final negotiations. The record also does not list an expected number of awards, leaving that field blank, which similarly suggests that the number of awards may have depended on funding availability, program needs, or other considerations described in the complete announcement.

In plain terms, this opportunity supports a national capacity-building approach for STD prevention programs: organizing and strengthening a network that can help state and local health departments improve program performance, adopt effective prevention strategies, and respond to STD prevention challenges with better coordination and technical support.
