Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "PPHF 2012 - Public Health Workforce - Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL), financed solely by 2012 Prevention and Public Health Funds," is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement designed to strengthen public health laboratory capacity in the United States and internationally. The central purpose is to enhance the overall work and effectiveness of public health laboratories by improving laboratory practice quality, upgrading infrastructure, and reinforcing the broader public health laboratory system. A major emphasis is also placed on building and sustaining a well-trained laboratory workforce, recognizing that workforce development is essential for reliable testing, rapid response, and long-term system resilience.
The program focuses on several connected outcomes. It seeks to promote consistent, high-quality public health laboratory practices and to modernize and support laboratory infrastructure so laboratories can perform accurately, efficiently, and safely. It also aims to strengthen the public health laboratory system as a coordinated network, not simply as individual labs operating independently. Another key goal is ensuring preparedness for emerging infectious diseases and other biological or chemical public health threats. In practical terms, this includes supporting the readiness of laboratories to detect and respond to new or re-emerging hazards, which can involve the ability to scale testing, maintain quality standards under pressure, and coordinate with public health partners during urgent events.
Technology transfer is also highlighted as a priority, with the intent of keeping testing laboratories up to date as methods and platforms evolve. This reflects the reality that laboratory science changes quickly and that public health effectiveness depends on access to current techniques and validated tools. Alongside the technical and workforce goals, the opportunity places strong importance on improving communication and linkages between state and local public health laboratories and the clinical laboratory community. Strengthening these connections supports smoother information flow, better coordination around testing and reporting, and more unified responses during outbreaks or other public health incidents.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism, meaning CDC would expect substantial involvement consistent with cooperative agreements rather than a hands-off grant model. The opportunity falls under the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.749, described as "PPHF - Public Health Laboratory Infrastructure, financed solely by Prevention and Public Health Fund." The total estimated funding amount is $1,983,074, and notably the award ceiling and floor are both $1,983,074, indicating a single award at a fixed amount. The number of expected awards is one, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Eligibility is restricted: assistance is to be provided only to the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL). The posting explicitly states APHL is the appropriate and only qualified organization to carry out the activities described in the announcement, so the competition is not open to a broader pool of applicants. Key timeline fields show the original posting date of March 4, 2010, with an original closing date of April 23, 2010; later system dates reflect a creation date of September 5, 2012, a current closing date of September 10, 2012, and an archive date of October 10, 2012, indicating the record was updated or republished in a way that extended or re-referenced the opportunity within the system.
The funding opportunity number is CDC-RFA-HM10-1001, and the sponsoring agency is the CDC. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), reachable by phone at 770-488-2700.
