Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Promoting Adolescent Health through School-Based HIV/STD Prevention and School-Based Surveillance," is a continuation funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is issued under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS13-130804CONT16 and is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work beyond simply providing funds. The activity category is listed as Health, and the associated CFDA number is 93.079, a CDC funding line that has historically supported school health and adolescent health-related public health activities.
The focus of the opportunity is improving adolescent health by strengthening school-based approaches to preventing HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), paired with school-based surveillance efforts. In practical terms, this type of funding generally supports strategies that can be implemented through schools or education agencies to reduce risk behaviors and improve access to prevention information and services for young people. The "surveillance" component signals an emphasis on collecting, analyzing, and using data connected to student health behaviors and outcomes, which is often used to guide decision-making, prioritize interventions, monitor trends, and measure progress over time.
Eligibility is not broadly open to all applicants; it is restricted to a category labeled "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced as being provided elsewhere in the full announcement. This phrasing is commonly used when eligibility is limited to specific entities such as prior award recipients, certain governmental or quasi-governmental organizations, or other specifically named or qualified organizations tied to the continuation award. Because this is explicitly labeled a continuation opportunity, it is generally intended for organizations already funded under an earlier version of the program, allowing them to continue or expand approved work rather than compete as brand-new applicants.
Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of April 1, 2016, with a creation and posting date of January 21, 2016. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which often indicates that a specific maximum funding amount was not stated in the summarized record or that the ceiling is defined in the full funding announcement or tied to budget negotiation under the cooperative agreement. The number of expected awards is not provided in the summary data, suggesting it may have been determined by available appropriations, continuation eligibility, or programmatic decisions rather than an open competitive target.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC support for continuing coordinated, school-centered HIV/STD prevention programming and the collection and use of student health surveillance data to drive and evaluate adolescent health interventions. The cooperative agreement structure and continuation category both point to an ongoing relationship between CDC and funded recipients, with an expectation of collaboration, adherence to CDC program guidance, and continued performance reporting tied to prevention and surveillance objectives.
