Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, RFA DP10-002, is a CDC cooperative agreement (U58) focused on generating practical, real-world evidence about which policy and system-level approaches do the best job preventing diabetes and reducing diabetes-related complications. It comes out of the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP) within HHS/CDC and is framed around the Healthy People 2010 diabetes priority area, along with CDCs performance measurement expectations under GPRA. The basic idea is to strengthen what states and communities can do by studying changes that happen in the real world (natural experiments) and by conducting effectiveness studies that show what works outside of tightly controlled research settings.
The emphasis is on policy and systems practices rather than only individual-level programs. In plain terms, CDC is looking for evaluations of real changes in rules, environments, health systems, coverage, benefits, clinical workflows, community infrastructure, or other structural interventions that could influence diabetes prevention or outcomes at scale. By supporting natural experiments, the announcement signals interest in situations where a policy or system change occurs for reasons not controlled by the researchers (for example, a new statewide benefit design, clinic system redesign, or community-level policy shift), and the evaluation team then rigorously measures the impact. By supporting effectiveness studies, CDC is also pointing applicants toward research that tests interventions under routine conditions, where staffing, budgets, adherence, and local constraints look like everyday public health practice.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement beyond simply writing a check. In many cooperative agreements, that involvement can include collaboration on study design expectations, performance monitoring, dissemination expectations, and alignment with national chronic disease prevention priorities. This fits the announcements stated purpose of building state and program capacity at the community level and producing findings that can guide better decisions in public health and healthcare systems.
Funding details indicate an estimated total of $1,500,000 with an expectation of 7 awards. No cost sharing or matching is required. The listing is under CFDA 93.945 (Assistance Programs for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control), and the activity category is health. The opportunity was posted February 19, 2010, created April 23, 2010, with an original closing date of April 15, 2010 that was extended to April 30, 2010, and it was archived May 30, 2010.
Eligibility is broad and includes 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 a wide range of governmental and tribal entities. Eligible governmental applicants include state and local governments and their bona fide agents, as well as U.S. territories and freely associated states listed in the announcement (including DC, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau). Tribal eligibility includes federally or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments and tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native health corporations, urban Indian health organizations, tribal epidemiology centers, and related entities. If applying as a bona fide agent for a state or local government, the applicant must provide documentation (a letter from the government) confirming that status and attach it with the application as instructed.
