Opportunity Summary:

The PPHF 2016 Preventive Health and Health Services Block Grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA OT16 1600PPHF16) is a CDC notice describing the agency's intent to continue funding the Preventive Health and Health Services (PHHS) Block Grant using money from the Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) for federal fiscal year 2016. The PHHS Block Grant is designed to support prevention, wellness, and core public health services, giving recipients flexible resources to address priority health needs and improve population health outcomes. This particular announcement is framed as continuation funding, meaning it is aimed at ongoing Block Grant activities rather than launching an entirely new competitive program.

Funding for this opportunity is tied directly to the Affordable Care Act. The Prevention and Public Health Fund was created under Section 4002 of the ACA to provide a dedicated stream of federal investment in prevention and public health. In this notice, CDC cites the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2014 as the direction governing the use of these funds in FY 2016. The total approximate amount available is stated as $146,277,574, and the notice emphasizes that this funding is financed solely by FY 2016 PPHF dollars. Administration of the PPHF is handled through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of the Secretary, which transfers amounts from the fund into appropriate HHS accounts, including those used by CDC to support programs like the PHHS Block Grant.

Structurally, the award mechanism is listed as a cooperative agreement. That indicates CDC expects to have substantial involvement with recipients compared with a standard grant, typically through ongoing collaboration, oversight, technical assistance, or shared responsibilities in implementing funded activities. The opportunity is categorized under the health funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 93.758, which corresponds to the Preventive Health and Health Services Block Grant program.

Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of June 24, 2016, with the opportunity created and posted on June 10, 2016. The listing shows an award ceiling of $0, which commonly appears in notices where awards are determined by formula allocations, continuation amounts, or other statutory/administrative calculations rather than a competitively set maximum per applicant. The notice also lists an expected number of awards as 1, which in this context likely reflects how the funding action is packaged or recorded in the system for the continuation award process rather than implying a typical open competition with many distinct new awards.

Eligibility is labeled as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which signals that eligible applicants are defined in the full announcement text (often states, territories, or other designated public health entities for block grant programs). The sponsoring agency is HHS, specifically the CDC office identified as OSTLTS (Office for State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support), aligning with the Block Grant's role in supporting public health capacity and prevention activities across jurisdictions.
