Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Strengthening a network of immunization programs to support the NCIRD mission to prevent disease through immunization," is a continuation cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is designed to support ongoing work that strengthens a coordinated network of immunization programs aligned with the mission of the CDCs National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD), with the overarching goal of preventing vaccine-preventable diseases through effective immunization systems.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that CDC expects to have substantial programmatic involvement during the project period. In practice, this type of arrangement typically means recipients carry out the day-to-day work of operating or improving immunization program functions, while CDC provides active technical assistance, guidance, and collaboration to ensure activities remain consistent with national immunization priorities, public health standards, and evidence-based approaches. The opportunity is categorized as a continuation, indicating it is intended to extend or continue existing funded activities rather than launch a brand-new, open competition for first-time applicants.
The opportunity sits within the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.185, which corresponds to CDC immunization-related assistance programs. While the eligibility line lists "Others" and refers applicants to an additional eligibility section for clarification, the listing as a continuation action usually implies eligibility is limited to current recipients or a defined set of partner organizations already participating in the established immunization program network. The funding posting does not provide an award ceiling and does not list the number of expected awards in the excerpted data, which often happens in continuation notices where funding amounts are determined by existing budgets, ongoing performance, and the availability of appropriated funds rather than a newly defined maximum.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number CDC RFA IP14 140203CONT16, a posting date of March 21, 2016, and a closing date of May 6, 2016 (with the original and current closing dates the same). Overall, the purpose is straightforward: maintain and reinforce a network of immunization programs that can support NCIRD priorities and improve the capacity of public health systems to deliver vaccines, sustain high vaccination coverage, and reduce the burden of diseases preventable through immunization.
