Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "PPHF 2012 Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity Programs financed in part by 2012 Prevention and Public Health Funds," was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary funding announcement released on June 14, 2012. It was funded in part through the 2012 Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) and supported public health work in nutrition, physical activity, and obesity prevention. The funding mechanism was a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC anticipated having substantial involvement with recipients beyond simply issuing funds, such as providing program guidance, technical assistance, performance monitoring, and support for implementing evidence-based strategies.
The opportunity was explicitly a continuation and supplemental funding announcement rather than an open, competitive solicitation. Eligibility was restricted to existing grantees that had already been awarded under the earlier Funding Opportunity Announcement DP08-805, "Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity Programs." In other words, new applicants who were not already funded under DP08-805 were not eligible; the purpose was to extend or supplement ongoing work already underway in states or jurisdictions funded through that earlier program. The listing shows the eligible applicant category as "Others," but the eligibility clarification makes clear that only prior DP08-805 awardees could receive funds under this continuation.
Administratively, the funding opportunity number was CDC-RFA-DP08-8050501PPHF12, and the program aligned with CFDA numbers 93.548 (PPHF State Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity Programs financed in part by PPHF) and 93.945 (Assistance Programs for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The application window ran from the posted date of June 14, 2012, to the closing date of July 16, 2012, and the announcement was archived on August 15, 2012, indicating it was no longer active after that point.
The announcement text provided here points applicants to a continuation announcement for the full program description and requirements, rather than detailing program goals and deliverables in the excerpt itself. The award floor and award ceiling fields are both shown as 0, which typically signals that specific award amounts were not stated in the summary record and would instead be defined in the continuation guidance or based on continuation funding determinations for each existing grantee. For assistance accessing the full announcement, CDC directed inquiries to its Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information and Management Section (TIMS), via phone at 770-488-2700 for general submission questions and technical access issues.
