Opportunity Summary:

The CDC funding opportunity titled "State based Surveillance for Hemoglobinopathies" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DD10 1017) is a discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement under the health funding activity category. Its central aim is to help states build or strengthen public health surveillance for hemoglobinopathies by supporting non-research activities that collect, link, and analyze data from selected samples of patients. The intent is to generate population-based estimates, meaning the resulting data should help quantify how many people are affected, describe key demographic and clinical patterns, and improve the ability of public health systems to understand these conditions at a statewide level.

A key feature of the program is that it is explicitly described as a pilot and a learning collaborative. In practice, that means the CDC is not only funding data collection, but also working closely with awardees to learn what methods work best, compare approaches across different environments, and develop practical lessons that can be used more broadly later. The emphasis on a "mixture of characteristics" indicates the CDC wanted participating jurisdictions to represent different state contexts (for example, differences in population size, demographics, existing data systems, or healthcare infrastructure) so the pilot could test surveillance approaches under varied real-world conditions. Because the mechanism is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial federal involvement compared to a typical grant, such as technical assistance, shared planning, and coordinated implementation expectations.

The opportunity anticipated a small number of awards, with an expected total of 2 awards. Funding levels were substantial for a pilot surveillance effort, with an award floor of $300,000 and an award ceiling of $600,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, which lowers the financial barrier for eligible applicants and typically means the applicant does not need to contribute non-federal funds to receive the award.

Eligibility was limited to governmental public health entities that are uniquely positioned to conduct statewide surveillance. Eligible applicants included state governments or their bona fide agents, along with certain U.S. territories and affiliated jurisdictions (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). New York City government was also explicitly eligible. This narrow eligibility reflects the nature of surveillance work, which often depends on legal authority, access to vital records and administrative datasets, and the ability to coordinate across healthcare systems and laboratories at a jurisdiction-wide level.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted on March 31, 2010, with an original closing date of May 14, 2010, later extended to a current closing date of June 14, 2010. The archive date was July 14, 2010, indicating it is no longer open. The CFDA number associated with the program is 93.184 (Disabilities Prevention), placing it within CDC efforts that track and prevent conditions contributing to disability and health burdens.

For applicants or stakeholders needing assistance accessing the full announcement at the time, the contact point was the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (telephone 770-488-2700, email pgotim@cdc.gov). Overall, this opportunity funded a small, targeted set of jurisdictions to pilot the practical, on-the-ground work of building hemoglobinopathy surveillance systems by assembling and linking data sources, producing population-based estimates, and contributing to a shared learning effort coordinated with CDC.
