Opportunity Summary:

The CDC funding opportunity titled "Prevalence and Incidence of Inflammatory Bowel Disease" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA DP 13 001) supported an epidemiological research effort designed to produce solid population-level estimates of how many people have inflammatory bowel disease (prevalence) and how many new cases occur over time (incidence). Beyond counting cases, the project focus extended to describing who is affected and how, by defining the demographic and clinical characteristics of IBD and documenting the impact of IBD on the health of affected individuals. In practical terms, the intent was to strengthen understanding of IBD burden in defined populations and to generate data that can inform public health planning, clinical awareness, and future research priorities.

This program was offered as a discretionary award under the Health activity category and used a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement indicates that CDC expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work, typically through collaboration, guidance on public health priorities, and coordination around methods, measures, or deliverables rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The assistance listing associated with this opportunity was CFDA 93.945, "Assistance Programs for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control," signaling that the award aligned with chronic disease surveillance and prevention goals.

The announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of $2,250,000. Individual year or project period funding parameters were described with an award ceiling of $550,000 and an award floor of $300,000, indicating the CDC expected proposed budgets to fall within that range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility or award.

Key dates show this was a time-limited competition posted on December 18, 2012, with a letter of intent due January 20, 2013. The full application deadline was February 20, 2013 by 5:00 PM U.S. Eastern Time. The opportunity closed on the same date and was later archived on March 22, 2013, reflecting that it is not currently active.

Eligibility was broad across U.S.-based organizations, with explicit inclusion of multiple organization types. Eligible applicants included public and private institutions of higher education, and the CDC specifically encouraged applications from institutions such as Hispanic-serving institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities, and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions. Nonprofit organizations (other than institutions of higher education) and for-profit organizations (other than small businesses) could apply, along with a wide range of government entities including state, county, city or township governments, special district governments, and federally recognized and non-federally recognized tribal governments, as well as U.S. territories or possessions. Additional eligible entities included independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, native tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), faith-based or community-based organizations, and regional organizations. The announcement also allowed applications from bona fide agents applying on behalf of a state or local government, provided the applicant submitted a legal, binding agreement documenting that status. Foreign organizations were not eligible, and foreign components of U.S. organizations were also not eligible.

Administrative information in the notice directed applicants to consult the "Full Announcement" for complete requirements, and it provided a CDC Procurement and Grants Office contact for technical access issues (TIMS, phone 770-488-2700; email PGOTIM@cdc.gov). Overall, the opportunity was structured to fund one major, CDC-collaborative epidemiologic study aimed at producing credible IBD prevalence and incidence estimates and richer characterization of the populations affected and the health impacts associated with the disease.
