Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Program Expansion Supplement: Technical Assistance Services to Countries Supported by PEPFAR and the Global Fund to Fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria," is a CDC-led cooperative agreement designed to strengthen the quality and reach of global health programs in countries supported by PEPFAR and the Global Fund. The central aim is not to fund on-the-ground service delivery directly, but to provide practical, targeted technical assistance and capacity-building support to the organizations and country programs that are responsible for implementing and scaling HIV-related services. In other words, it is meant to supply expert guidance, tools, training, and strategic support so that implementers can improve performance, address gaps, and build sustainable systems that countries can ultimately manage themselves.
The opportunity emphasizes comprehensive and cost-effective technical assistance across major program needs tied to HIV epidemic response, while still recognizing that PEPFAR and Global Fund activities can span broader global health priorities. A key element of the scope is supporting Global Fund implementing partners specifically in assessing HIV service delivery, then translating assessment findings into actionable technical assistance plans and strategies. This includes helping partners identify weaknesses in service quality or coverage, improving how services are organized and monitored, and strengthening the technical skills and systems needed to maintain gains over time. The overall purpose aligns with CDC and HHS goals of ensuring that supported countries have the technical expertise and institutional capacity to take increasing responsibility for HIV service delivery and to respond effectively to their local epidemics.
Applicants are expected to propose work in one or more of five critical technical areas that PEPFAR prioritizes. The first is Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT), which typically involves improving the quality and uptake of services that prevent HIV transmission during pregnancy, delivery, and breastfeeding. The second area is HIV care and treatment clinical services for adults and children, which commonly includes strengthening clinical protocols, service delivery models, quality improvement approaches, and the systems needed to support antiretroviral therapy scale-up. The third area is pediatric HIV care and treatment (PEDs), focusing on the specialized clinical and programmatic needs of infants, children, and adolescents, such as early infant diagnosis, child-friendly treatment regimens, and retention in care. The fourth area is Surveillance and Strategic Information (SI), which generally refers to improving how programs collect, analyze, and use data for decision-making, including monitoring and evaluation, reporting quality, and using strategic information to guide targeting and resource allocation. The fifth area is Laboratory, which supports the diagnostic and monitoring backbone of HIV programs, such as strengthening laboratory systems, quality management, testing networks, and related capacity needed for reliable results and program tracking.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement mechanism, meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in guiding and collaborating on the work rather than acting solely as a funder. The funding opportunity number is CDC RFA GH13-13680302SUPP16 under CFDA 93.067, and it was issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (specifically CGH). The award ceiling is listed as $900,000, with one expected award. The posting dates indicate it was created on August 3, 2016, with an original closing date of October 2, 2016, and electronic applications were required by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement text.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted technical support and capacity-building grant meant to help PEPFAR and Global Fund implementers improve HIV program performance and sustainability. The expected results revolve around better service delivery quality, stronger national and partner capacity, clearer technical strategies informed by service delivery assessments, and improved systems in clinical care, PMTCT, pediatric treatment, surveillance/strategic information, and laboratories, all aimed at helping countries manage their HIV responses more effectively over time.
