Opportunity Summary:

The State-Based Perinatal Quality Collaboratives grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP14-140403CONT16) is a continuation funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It uses the cooperative agreement funding instrument, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work after an award is made, such as providing technical assistance, guiding implementation, and collaborating on performance monitoring rather than simply issuing funds with minimal follow-up. The activity category is health, and it is associated with CFDA 93.946.

The focus of the opportunity is on supporting state-based Perinatal Quality Collaboratives (PQCs). PQCs are generally statewide networks of clinicians, hospitals, public health agencies, and other partners that use quality improvement methods to improve outcomes for mothers and infants across perinatal care settings. While the source text provided does not list specific required projects or focus areas, the title and program type indicate the intent is to strengthen or sustain coordinated, data-driven quality improvement efforts within states to improve perinatal care processes and outcomes.

This announcement is categorized as a continuation opportunity, meaning it is intended for ongoing work rather than a brand-new standalone program cycle. The eligibility field indicates "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but that clarifying eligibility text is not included in the material provided, so the exact eligible entity types cannot be confirmed from the excerpt alone. In many CDC continuation cooperative agreements, eligibility is often limited to current recipients or specific previously funded entities, but that should be verified against the full announcement.

Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of April 29, 2016, and a posting and creation date of January 29, 2016. The expected number of awards is listed as 50, suggesting broad support across multiple recipients, potentially reflecting multi-state participation or multiple funded partners within the program’s structure. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which usually signals that a maximum award amount is either not specified in the summarized fields, varies by recipient, is described elsewhere in the full funding announcement, or is otherwise not captured in this particular data extract.

In practical terms, this opportunity is best understood as CDC support for established state-level perinatal quality infrastructure through cooperative agreements, aiming to maintain and advance collaborative quality improvement systems that can implement evidence-based changes in maternity and newborn care, measure performance, and spread successful practices statewide. For exact funding amounts, eligibility rules, required activities, and reporting expectations, the full notice would need to be consulted since those details are not included in the provided source snippet.
