Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) grant opportunity titled "Promoting the Health of People with Clotting Disorders" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA DD09-904) is a discretionary funding program offered as a cooperative agreement to support non-research public health activities focused on people affected by clotting disorders, with a strong emphasis on venous thromboembolism (VTE). The central purpose is to expand access to credible, accurate health information and to strengthen public health programming that helps individuals and health professionals prevent complications linked to clotting. Rather than funding laboratory or clinical research, this opportunity is designed to support practical, real-world education, training, and health promotion efforts that can directly improve awareness, decision-making, and care practices.
The CDC outlines two main types of supported activities. First, applicants can implement effective health promotion and wellness programs for people who have experienced clotting events or who are at higher risk for VTE. These programs are expected to provide understandable, evidence-based guidance that helps people recognize risks, adopt protective health behaviors, and reduce the likelihood or severity of secondary conditions associated with clotting. Second, applicants may focus on training health care professionals, particularly around early recognition of VTE and the use of management strategies that prevent VTE complications. In practical terms, the CDC is looking for efforts that move the needle on how quickly VTE is recognized, how appropriately it is managed, and how consistently prevention strategies are applied, especially in settings where missed or delayed recognition can lead to serious harm.
The intended outcomes are framed around education and behavior change. The goal is to increase knowledge and awareness and to influence perceptions, beliefs, and attitudes among two audiences: (1) people affected by clotting, meaning individuals who have experienced VTE or are at increased risk, and (2) health care professionals who play a role in identifying VTE early and preventing complications. The emphasis on beliefs and attitudes signals that the CDC is not only interested in distributing information, but also in improving how people interpret risk, take symptoms seriously, follow prevention guidance, and engage with recommended care practices. On the provider side, it also points to improving clinical vigilance, confidence, and consistency in prevention and management behaviors that can reduce downstream complications.
Financially, the program anticipated making about five awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between $100,000 (award floor) and $600,000 (award ceiling), and the opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds. Because the funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect active involvement from the CDC beyond what is typical for a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often include collaboration, technical input, or ongoing coordination with the agency to ensure activities align with public health goals and evidence-based practices.
Eligibility was broad and included many types of organizations and government entities. Eligible applicants included nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, for-profit organizations (excluding small businesses, though small, minority, and women-owned businesses were explicitly listed), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, and a wide range of tribal entities (federally or state recognized tribal governments, tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native health corporations, urban Indian health organizations, tribal epidemiology centers). State and local governments and their bona fide agents were also eligible, including U.S. territories and freely associated states named in the announcement. If applying as a bona fide agent, the applicant needed documentation from the relevant state or local government confirming that status, submitted as part of the application package through Grants.gov.
Key administrative details place this opportunity in 2009: it was posted and created on April 8, 2009, with an original and current closing date of June 8, 2009, and an archive date of July 8, 2009. The program is associated with CFDA number 93.184 under the Disabilities Prevention category. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management Section was listed as the contact point, with a phone number provided (770-488-2700).
Overall, this funding opportunity was built to support organizations that can deliver credible clotting-related health information and implement education or training programs that improve prevention, early detection, and complication management for VTE. The CDCs focus is practical public health impact: better informed patients and at-risk individuals, better prepared clinicians, and stronger prevention and management behaviors that reduce harm from clotting-related conditions.
