Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "PPHF 2012 National Diabetes Prevention Program: Preventing Type 2 Diabetes Among People at High Risk" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP12-1212PPHF12), was a discretionary federal funding announcement released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It was financed solely through the 2012 Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) and centered on chronic disease innovation efforts. The overall purpose was to scale up (expand) and sustain the National Diabetes Prevention Program (National DPP), a national initiative designed to prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes among people identified as being at high risk.
The funding mechanism was a cooperative agreement, which generally means recipients would not only receive funding but would also be expected to work in coordination with CDC, with substantial federal involvement typical of cooperative agreements. The activity category was health, and the listing referenced CFDA number 93.739, associated with PPHF chronic disease innovation grants funded exclusively through public prevention and health funds. The program did not require cost sharing or matching, reducing barriers for organizations that might not have additional funds to contribute alongside the federal award.
The opportunity anticipated making up to eight awards. Individual award amounts were structured within a defined range, with an award floor of $750,000 and an award ceiling of $2,000,000. This spread suggests CDC intended to support a small number of relatively well-resourced, high-impact projects capable of expanding program reach and building long-term infrastructure for diabetes prevention services rather than funding many small pilot initiatives.
Eligibility was broad and included nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations, Indian/Native American tribal governments, and faith-based organizations. The announcement noted "Others" with a reference to additional eligibility language in the full text, indicating that more detailed or conditional eligibility criteria may have applied depending on organizational type, partnerships, or the nature of proposed activities. The diversity of eligible applicants aligns with the National DPP model, which often relies on cross-sector delivery systems and community-based access points to reach people at risk, including through employers, healthcare-adjacent entities, community organizations, and trusted local institutions.
Key dates show this was a time-limited 2012 opportunity. The posting date was June 22, 2012, with a closing deadline of July 31, 2012 (both the original and current closing date were the same), and an archive date of August 30, 2012. The creation date was listed as July 17, 2012, which is consistent with internal record timing that can occur after initial posting. Interested applicants during that period would have had a short application window, emphasizing the need for readiness and existing capacity to implement an expansion-focused prevention program quickly.
For applicant support and submission issues, the CDC provided a point of contact through CDC PGO TIMS, with a phone number (770-488-2700) for general submission inquiries and assistance accessing the full announcement electronically. Overall, the opportunity was designed to invest substantial prevention funding into organizations capable of expanding the National DPP and putting in place sustainable systems to reduce progression to type 2 diabetes among high-risk populations.
