Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offered this discretionary cooperative agreement as a competitive supplemental funding opportunity to strengthen and sustain state-level public health surveillance through the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). The overall goal was to give State Health Departments added resources to keep BRFSS sample sizes at previously planned levels, improve the usefulness of BRFSS data, and reinforce the ongoing infrastructure that states rely on for population-based surveillance. In practical terms, the supplement was designed to help states continue collecting high-quality, timely telephone survey data that can guide public health decision-making at both state and local levels.
A major emphasis of the opportunity was improving states ability to measure and monitor Influenza Like Illness (ILI) using BRFSS. The funding was intended to support the collection of BRFSS data specifically to estimate ILI prevalence and trends, which would feed into pandemic influenza preparedness and response activities. By adding resources for ILI-related data collection, CDC aimed to help states generate more actionable information during periods of heightened influenza concern, when understanding community-level symptom patterns can help shape communication strategies, resource planning, and situational awareness.
The announcement structured the work into components. Under Component I (including subcomponents IA, IB, and IC), funds supported ILI surveillance through BRFSS and also supported optional BRFSS modules addressing other public health topics of importance to individual states. This approach gave states room to tailor BRFSS content to emerging or locally significant issues while still meeting the national priority of strengthening influenza-related monitoring. The intent was not only to add questions, but to ensure states had the sampling capacity and operational support needed to produce stable estimates and usable local-area insights.
A second focus area, Component II, tied BRFSS data collection to evaluation needs for interventions funded under the Affordable Care Act through the Communities Putting Prevention to Work (ACA CPPW) initiative. For states eligible for Component II, the supplement could be used to support BRFSS-related data collection that helps evaluate prevention interventions and assess the effectiveness of activities supported by CPPW funding. Eligibility for Component II was more limited than Component I: only State Health Departments where a CPPW-funded grantee operated within the state health agency jurisdictional boundary could apply, and CDC indicated those eligible states would be notified directly prior to the deadline. This component reflects the role of BRFSS as an evaluation tool, not just a surveillance instrument, by supplying population-level measures that can track changes related to policy, systems, and environmental strategies.
Funding decisions were competitive, and award amounts for individual states were determined through a competitive evaluation rather than a fixed allocation. The estimated total funding available was $9,000,000, with an expected 53 awards. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. Eligible applicants for Component I included the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands that were already funded under the related CDC BRFSS announcement (CDC RFA DP09-901). The funding opportunity number was CDC RFA DP09-90103 SUPP10, and it was posted August 13, 2010, with an application closing date of September 8, 2010, and an archive date of October 8, 2010. The CFDA numbers associated with the opportunity were 93.283 (CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance) and 93.520 (ACA Communities Putting Prevention to Work).
Because this was a cooperative agreement, recipients could generally expect substantial involvement from CDC compared with a standard grant, often in areas like technical assistance, coordination, or guidance on surveillance methods and data use. The announcement also provided a point of contact through the CDC Procurement and Grants Office for access issues or assistance.
