Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "PPHF 2016: Office of Smoking and Health - Consortium for Tobacco Use Cessation Technical Assistance - Financed solely by 2016 Prevention and Public Health Funds," is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) grant action administered under HHS/CDC within the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP). It is specifically tied to the Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) for fiscal year 2016, meaning the money supporting the award comes solely from those PPHF 2016 funds. The focus area is public health, with an emphasis on tobacco use cessation and, more specifically, on providing technical assistance through a consortium model that supports cessation-related work.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-DP13-131604CONTPPHF16 and is categorized as a continuation action rather than a brand-new, open competition. In practical terms, a continuation notice like this typically exists to extend or continue previously funded work under an existing program structure, rather than to solicit a broad set of new applicants competing for first-time awards. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities beyond a standard grant relationship. Cooperative agreements commonly involve close coordination with CDC staff, shared planning, and ongoing collaboration around deliverables, technical guidance, performance monitoring, and program improvement.
The listed activity category is "Health" and the CFDA number is 93.759, which corresponds to CDC Office on Smoking and Health activities related to tobacco control. The core purpose implied by the title is to maintain and operate a consortium that delivers tobacco use cessation technical assistance. Technical assistance in this context usually includes helping programs and partners strengthen cessation systems and services, sharing evidence-based practices, supporting implementation and quality improvement, assisting with training and capacity building, and helping align cessation strategies with national guidelines and proven public health approaches. A consortium structure suggests coordinated support that may draw on multiple partners, disciplines, or organizations to provide comprehensive assistance to recipients or stakeholders working on cessation.
Eligibility is not broadly defined in the summary fields and is instead listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)." This is another signal that the continuation nature of the award may narrow eligibility to certain entities, such as existing awardees, specific organizations, or applicants meeting particular criteria described in the full announcement. The awarding agency is shown as HHS-CDC-NCCDPHP, reflecting CDC's chronic disease prevention portfolio where tobacco control is commonly housed.
Key administrative dates show the announcement was created and posted on March 8, 2016, with an original and current closing date of April 22, 2016. The award ceiling is listed as 0, and the number of expected awards is not populated in the provided extract. In many federal postings, a zero ceiling or blank expected awards field can occur when the posting is primarily administrative (for example, a continuation action with predetermined funding levels), when details are provided elsewhere in the full notice, or when the system record does not capture the amount in the summary fields. The essential takeaway from the posted record is that this is a CDC cooperative agreement continuation funded by PPHF 2016 to support a tobacco cessation technical assistance consortium operated under the Office of Smoking and Health umbrella.
