Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "PPHF 2015 Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity Programs - National Innovative Partnerships for Addressing Obesity through Environmental Supports for Nutrition and Physical Activity" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP13-130403PPHF15) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continuation notice tied to the Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) for fiscal year 2015. It sits within the public health and health promotion space and is associated with CFDA 93.548, which covers state and related nutrition, physical activity, and obesity efforts financed in part by PPHF. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC typically maintains substantial involvement in the funded work through collaboration, technical assistance, and monitoring, rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal engagement.
This specific posting is explicitly marked "For Informational Purpose only" and, in practical terms, it is not a competitive funding announcement. It replaces an earlier continuation posting (DP13-130403CONT15) and does not solicit new applications from new entities. Instead, the CDC indicates that applications already filed under the February 18, 2015 announcement will be used for review and award decisions. In other words, the April 14, 2015 posting functions like an administrative replacement or corrective notice for an already-running continuation process, not a new round of funding.
The opportunity is financed solely by 2015 PPHF dollars and is structured strictly as continuation funding for existing grantees. Eligibility is therefore limited to organizations that were previously awarded under CDC RFA DP13-1304, titled "PPHF 2013 National Innovative Partnerships for Addressing Obesity through Environmental Supports for Nutrition and Physical Activity." While the Eligible Applicants field is broadly labeled "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility language makes clear that only prior awardees under the 2013 initiative are intended recipients. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed.
The posting’s funding totals reflect its informational and continuation-only nature. It lists zero expected awards, zero estimated total funding, and zero award ceiling and floor, which is consistent with a notice intended to document continuation actions rather than announce new funds for open competition. Key dates show it was posted and created on April 14, 2015, had an original and current closing date of May 14, 2015 (both accompanied by the same informational-only disclaimer), and was archived on June 13, 2015. These dates mainly matter for recordkeeping and for the continuation applicants already in the pipeline, rather than for prospective new applicants.
Programmatically, the initiative’s focus is on addressing obesity through "environmental supports" that improve nutrition and physical activity. In public health grant language, environmental supports generally refer to changes in physical, social, policy, and organizational environments that make healthy choices easier and more accessible, such as improving access to healthier foods, supporting active transportation, strengthening community design for physical activity, or implementing institutional practices that encourage healthier eating and movement. The title signals an emphasis on innovative partnerships at a national level, implying collaborations that connect public health agencies with community organizations, education, healthcare, employers, or other sectors to produce broader population-level impact.
For assistance accessing the full announcement materials, the contact listed is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), reachable by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov. Overall, the most important takeaway is that this listing documents a PPHF-funded continuation action for prior DP13-1304 grantees and is not an open call for new applications or new competing awards.
