Opportunity Summary:
The Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CE13-1301) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary funding announcement that supports statewide and territorial efforts to prevent sexual violence before it happens. The program is centered on primary prevention, meaning it prioritizes strategies that stop sexual violence from occurring in the first place rather than focusing only on response services after an incident. The underlying goal is to reduce sexual violence by addressing and shifting the risk and protective factors that influence behavior and environments at multiple levels, including individuals, relationships, and communities. In practical terms, this means encouraging prevention approaches that can change norms, strengthen healthy relationship behaviors, improve community readiness, and reduce conditions that allow sexual violence to occur. The opportunity is explicitly aligned with the Healthy People 2020 focus area of Injury and Violence Prevention, positioning sexual violence prevention as a public health priority.
This funding was offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates an active partnership between the CDC and awardees. Under this structure, recipients generally carry out the work locally while the federal agency remains substantially involved through technical assistance, guidance, and collaboration on implementation and evaluation. The program emphasizes not only implementing prevention strategies but also building the capacity needed to do this work effectively over time. That includes strengthening skills, infrastructure, and systems for planning, implementing, and evaluating prevention initiatives. It also stresses building and sustaining partnerships for prevention, recognizing that meaningful reductions in sexual violence often depend on coordinated work across public health agencies, schools, community organizations, coalitions, and other stakeholders.
The announcement anticipated 59 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $35,302,137. Individual awards could be as high as $3,400,000, with no stated minimum award floor. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible applicants. The CFDA number associated with this opportunity was 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs), placing it within the broader federal portfolio supporting injury and violence prevention activities.
Eligibility was limited primarily to Departments of Health (or their bona fide agents) across all 50 states and a wide set of U.S. jurisdictions and freely associated states, including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau. The bona fide agent option allows a state or local government to designate another agency or organization to apply on its behalf, but it requires a legal, binding agreement documenting that designation. Applicants using that route were required to submit the documentation as part of the application package through Grants.gov.
Key dates for the opportunity show that it was posted on June 25, 2012, with an application deadline of August 17, 2012, and it was archived on September 16, 2012. For assistance accessing the full announcement at the time, the CDC Procurement and Grants Office was listed as the point of contact (Phone: 770-488-2700; Email: PGOTIM@cdc.gov).
