Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "Reducing Teen Pregnancy through Family Planning Integrating Services, Programs, and Strategies through Community wide Initiatives" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP10-1025) is a CDC discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement. Its central goal is to test and demonstrate how well innovative, multi-component, community-wide initiatives can prevent teen pregnancy and reduce teen births in U.S. communities with the highest teen birth rates. While the initiative is meant to serve all adolescents, it places a deliberate emphasis on reaching African American and Latino youth ages 15 to 19 because of the disproportionate impact teen births have had in these populations, as reflected in national statistics cited in the announcement.
The program is designed around the idea that teen pregnancy prevention is more effective when it is approached as a coordinated community effort rather than a single intervention delivered in isolation. In practice, that means integrating family planning-related services with broader programs and strategies across the community. The FOA signals an expectation for initiatives that combine multiple components, such as improving access to youth-friendly reproductive health services, aligning and strengthening prevention education and outreach, and coordinating partners so that young people encounter consistent messages and clear pathways to care. Because this is a cooperative agreement, recipients should also expect an ongoing working relationship with CDC, which typically includes federal involvement in areas like technical assistance, performance monitoring, and continuous improvement rather than a hands-off grant structure.
The target population focus is clearly stated. The initiative prioritizes communities with the highest teen birth rates and specifically aims to engage African American and Latino teens ages 15 to 19. The FOA provides demographic context to justify this focus: African American and Latino youth were noted as approximately 16 percent and 17 percent of the youth population (based on 2007 NCHS data) and together accounted for a large share of teen births in 2006 (24 percent among African Americans and 33 percent among Latinas, per NCHS). Even with that targeted emphasis, the announcement also includes an explicit participation requirement: program services must be open to all adolescents regardless of race, ethnicity, or sexual identity. In other words, the initiative is targeted in its outreach and focus, but it is not permitted to exclude teens from services based on identity.
Eligibility is restricted to organizations already participating in the federal Title X family planning network. Specifically, eligible applicants must be OPA (Office of Population Affairs) Family Planning Title X service providers, including both Title X grantees and their delegates. The FOA points applicants to the official HHS list of Title X service providers for verification. This eligibility restriction reflects the FOA’s emphasis on integrating teen pregnancy prevention with established family planning service delivery capacity, suggesting the CDC wanted awardees that already operate clinical service sites and can rapidly implement or expand adolescent-focused approaches within communities.
In terms of scale and funding, the CDC anticipated making two awards under this opportunity. The estimated total funding amount is $5,000,000, with an award ceiling of $1,000,000 and no stated award floor (listed as $0). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers barriers for eligible Title X providers that may not have access to non-federal matching funds. The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number associated with the opportunity is 93.946, described as "Cooperative Agreements to Support State-Based Safe Motherhood and Infant Health Initiative Programs," indicating the award is administered within an existing public health assistance framework.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted May 10, 2010, with records showing an original closing date of June 28, 2010 and a current closing date of June 30, 2010. The archive date is July 28, 2010, indicating it is a past (archived) competition rather than an open one. For applicants or stakeholders who had trouble accessing the full announcement at the time, the CDC Procurement and Grants Office provided a contact point through its TIMS support line and email (770-488-2700; PGOTIM@cdc.gov).
Overall, the FOA can be understood as a targeted public health investment aimed at generating real-world evidence on what works when communities combine clinical family planning access with coordinated prevention programs and strategies, especially in places where teen birth rates are highest and where African American and Latino youth are most affected. The structure of the award, the requirement for Title X eligibility, and the emphasis on multi-component community-wide initiatives all reinforce a model that links prevention messaging and education to practical, youth-appropriate access to reproductive health services within a coordinated local system.
