Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "PPHF 2015 Tobacco Use Prevention - Public Health Approaches for Ensuring Quitline Capacity," was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding announcement focused on sustaining and supporting state quitline services as part of tobacco use prevention efforts. It was financed solely through the federal fiscal year 2015 Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF). The announcement was explicitly marked "for informational purpose only," meaning it served primarily as a public record or notice rather than a broad, open solicitation for new applicants.
Administratively, the opportunity was issued as a cooperative agreement, which usually indicates that CDC expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work, such as providing technical assistance, guidance, and collaboration during implementation rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal interaction. The opportunity category was listed as "Continuation," reinforcing that this was not new competitive funding but an extension or continuation of prior work. It fell under the health funding activity category and was associated with CFDA number 93.735, reflecting the program area tied to state public health approaches that ensure quitline capacity, funded in part by PPHF. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so eligible recipients were not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the continuation support.
Eligibility was narrowly restricted. Only grantees previously funded under CDC RFA DP14-1410PPHF14, titled "PPHF 2014 Tobacco Use Prevention - Public Health Approaches for Ensuring Quitline Capacity," were eligible to receive these continuation funds. In practical terms, that means new applicants, new states, or organizations that were not already funded under the 2014 award could not apply to start a new project under this 2015 notice. The eligibility category is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the clarification provided makes it clear the applicant pool was limited to existing 2014 awardees.
The timeline indicates the announcement was posted and created on May 14, 2015, with an original and current closing date of June 12, 2015, and an archive date of July 12, 2015. Because it was a continuation notice intended for existing awardees, the relatively short application window fits the pattern of renewal or continuation actions where recipients already have established work plans and performance histories. The listing shows expected awards as 0 and estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor all as 0; this is consistent with an informational or administrative posting where the actual continuation amounts may have been handled through internal processes, amendments, or separate award actions rather than being published as a new competitive funding level in the public synopsis.
Programmatically, the core purpose was to ensure "quitline capacity" as part of tobacco use prevention. Quitlines are typically state-supported telephone-based cessation services that provide counseling, referrals, and often coordination with nicotine replacement therapy access depending on state policies and funding. Ensuring capacity generally means maintaining the ability to meet demand, operate at adequate staffing and service levels, manage call volumes, provide evidence-based cessation counseling, and support public health strategies that direct tobacco users to cessation support. While the public synopsis does not include performance measures or required activities, the title and program framing strongly indicate that the continuation funding was meant to sustain and strengthen the infrastructure and reach of quitline services rather than launching unrelated tobacco control activities.
For further information, the public contact listed was the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management, reachable by email at pgotim@cdc.gov and by phone at 770-488-2700. The agency name for the opportunity was the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the overall description again emphasized that the announcement was provided for informational purposes only.
