Opportunity Summary:
The National Sexual Violence Technical Assistance Resource Center for Prevention of Sexual Violence opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CE19 1901) is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to fund one organization to operate a national technical assistance resource center focused on preventing sexual violence. Administered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), within NCIPC, the award aims to strengthen the sexual violence prevention field by improving how prevention programs are planned, carried out, and evaluated across the country, with particular emphasis on building the capacity of CDC's Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) program recipients and the partners they fund.
At its core, the funded resource center is expected to deliver hands-on technical assistance that includes both subject matter expertise and practical, logistical support. The primary audience for this assistance is CDC's RPE program recipients, such as state health departments, along with their sub-recipients and programmatic partners. The work is meant to help these recipients successfully implement prevention strategies and also evaluate those strategies in ways that produce useful evidence, measurable improvement, and replicable practices.
A major component of the project involves developing and distributing prevention resources. This includes creating information tools, guidance, and training materials that can be used by RPE recipients and their partners to support day-to-day program operations and longer-term prevention planning. The center is also expected to conduct trainings delivered through online webinars as well as in-person sessions, ensuring that prevention practitioners have access to skill-building opportunities in multiple formats and can translate guidance into real-world programming.
In addition to providing direct technical support and training, the resource center must maintain a centralized resource library that collects, organizes, and disseminates sexual violence prevention information and guidance. This library functions as a hub for the field, supporting consistency and shared learning by making vetted materials easier to find and apply. While the center's primary service population is the RPE network, the NOFO also makes clear that resources and information developed for RPE recipients should be broadly disseminated to sexual violence prevention practitioners nationwide, extending the impact beyond CDC-funded jurisdictions.
The funding mechanism is a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning CDC anticipates an active role in the project beyond standard grants management, typically through collaboration, feedback, and alignment with CDC prevention priorities. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 93.136, reflects a health-focused program area, and is open to unrestricted applicants (any eligible entity type), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement. The NOFO planned a single award with an award ceiling of $1,500,000, indicating a sizable national-scope project intended to serve as a central source of expertise and support.
The original timeline shows the opportunity was created on April 5, 2019, with an original application closing date of June 7, 2019, and electronically submitted applications due by 11:59 p.m. ET on the deadline date. Overall, the intent is to improve the effectiveness and reach of sexual violence prevention by equipping RPE recipients and the broader prevention workforce with better tools, training, and technical assistance, especially in the areas of implementation quality and program evaluation.
