Opportunity Summary:
The Public Health Emergency Preparedness Cooperative Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-TP11-1101) is a CDC discretionary grant program that uses a cooperative agreement mechanism to strengthen the ability of public health agencies to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies. Covering the 2011 to 2016 project period, the program is designed to help health departments show measurable and sustainable progress in building and maintaining the 15 public health preparedness capabilities. These capabilities represent core areas of public health readiness, such as effective emergency operations coordination, timely information sharing, community preparedness, medical countermeasure dispensing and administration, public health laboratory testing and surge capacity, and other operational functions that help communities become safer and more resilient during incidents ranging from infectious disease outbreaks to natural disasters and other all-hazards events. The emphasis is not only on planning, but on demonstrating outcomes and continuous improvement over time.
This opportunity is administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under CFDA 93.069 (Public Health Emergency Preparedness). CDC anticipated making approximately 62 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding level of $613,610,342. The funding notice lists no award ceiling and no award floor, which generally indicates that final award amounts are determined by statutory formulas, program policy, and CDC budget decisions rather than a simple competitive range with fixed minimums or maximums. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is restricted by statute. Applicants must be states or consortia of states that submit complete applications meeting the statutory and administrative requirements described in the announcement. Certain political subdivisions may also be eligible, but only if CDC determines that they meet the statutory requirements; the announcement specifically references those currently funded under PHEP award AA154 as falling into that limited category. The legal authority for the program is tied to Section 319C-1 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended by the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act of 2006 (codified at 42 U.S.C. 247d-3), which sets boundaries on who can receive funds and reinforces the program's national preparedness purpose.
Key timeline details in the notice show the opportunity was posted on April 20, 2011, with an original application closing date of June 17, 2011, later extended to a current closing date of June 24, 2011. The archive date is listed as July 17, 2011, indicating when the opportunity was formally closed out in the posting system. For applicants or stakeholders who had trouble accessing the full announcement, CDC directed inquiries to the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (TIMS) at 770-488-2700 or PGOTIM@cdc.gov.
Overall, this cooperative agreement reflects CDC's approach to public health preparedness as a long-term capability-building effort that requires recipients to document progress, sustain improvements, and align their activities with a nationally defined set of preparedness capabilities. The intended outcome is stronger readiness across jurisdictions and more resilient communities when facing public health emergencies.
