Opportunity Summary:

The Public Health Conference Support opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RA-PS16-1605) is a discretionary funding program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement with recipients during the project period (for example, providing guidance or coordination rather than simply issuing a one-time payment). The program sits within the Health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.339.

The main goal of this opportunity is to provide partial financial support for specific non-federal conferences that advance public health priorities. In particular, the conferences supported under this announcement are expected to focus on health promotion, disease prevention information and education programs, and applied research. In practical terms, this type of funding is meant to help organizations convene meetings that share evidence, train or educate stakeholders, spread best practices, and strengthen the translation of research into real-world public health action. The emphasis on "partial support" signals that the CDC is not necessarily intending to underwrite all conference costs, but rather to supplement other funding sources to help make targeted, high-value conferences possible.

Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity is broadly open to many types of organizations or entities, with the note that any additional eligibility clarifications would be provided in the official eligibility text of the funding announcement. The announcement anticipated making around 10 awards, with an award ceiling of $400,000. The opportunity was created and posted on February 5, 2016, and the application deadline (original and current) was May 16, 2016.
