Opportunity Summary:

The Prevention and Public Health Fund Pacific Islands Coordinated Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Program (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP09 9020303PPHF11) is a CDC discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement. Its central aim is to help Pacific Island territorial health departments build, formalize, or strengthen a coordinated chronic disease prevention and health promotion program that can serve as the leadership and organizing hub for multiple CDC-funded chronic disease efforts happening in the territory. Rather than operating separate, siloed projects for each disease or risk factor, the opportunity emphasizes coordination, shared planning, and unified evaluation so programs can work together more efficiently and produce greater population-level impact.

The program focuses on the five leading chronic disease causes of death and disability highlighted in the announcement: heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and arthritis. It also targets the major risk factors linked to these conditions, including (but not limited to) nutrition, physical activity, and obesity. In practical terms, the grant is designed to support health departments in aligning chronic disease and risk-factor work across categories such as heart disease and stroke prevention, cancer prevention and control, diabetes prevention and management, arthritis efforts, and broader health promotion strategies that address lifestyle and environmental drivers of chronic disease.

Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial involvement from CDC compared with a typical grant, especially around program direction, coordination expectations, performance monitoring, and evaluation support. The intent is not simply to fund isolated activities, but to strengthen the territorial health department's ability to guide strategy, coordinate across disease programs, support implementation, and track results in a consistent way across multiple chronic disease initiatives funded by CDC.

Eligibility is limited and specifically tied to existing participation in a related CDC effort. Applicants must be grantees currently funded under DP09 902 Affiliated Pacific Island Collaborative Performance Agreement, and eligibility is restricted to territorial health departments or their bona fide agents in the following jurisdictions: American Samoa, the Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, the Marshall Islands, and Palau. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which reduces financial barriers for eligible territorial applicants.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted June 8, 2011, created July 11, 2011, and had an original (and final) closing date of July 22, 2011 at 5:00 pm Eastern Standard Time, with an archive date of August 21, 2011. The estimated total funding amount is $3,135,000, and the CDC anticipated making five awards. The CFDA number associated with this opportunity is 93.544, and the authority cited includes provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, which established and supported Prevention and Public Health Fund investments.

For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the notice directs them to contact the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information and Management Section (TIMS), at 770-488-2700 for general submission inquiries.
