Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), focused on supporting Haiti's Ministry of Health in strengthening and expanding national HIV/AIDS programs under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The central aim is to improve the full continuum of HIV services in Haiti, including prevention, diagnosis, clinical care, treatment, ongoing monitoring, and public health surveillance. In addition to HIV, the opportunity explicitly includes work that strengthens the monitoring and surveillance capacity for both communicable and non-communicable diseases, reflecting a broader public health systems approach that can improve how Haiti detects, tracks, and responds to multiple health threats while still prioritizing HIV epidemic control outcomes.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects substantial involvement in program direction, technical guidance, and coordination during implementation rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement. Because it is listed as a continuation opportunity, it is designed to extend or build on an existing project or relationship rather than launch a brand-new standalone program. The opportunity is categorized under health and is associated with CFDA number 93.067, which is tied to CDC activities supporting prevention and control efforts for related public health priorities. The opportunity name signals a focus on national-level strengthening, meaning it likely emphasizes building sustainable capacity within the Ministry of Health and national systems, not just supporting isolated service delivery sites.
In practical terms, the scope implied by the title includes reinforcing HIV prevention strategies, improving testing and diagnostic coverage and quality, ensuring strong linkage to care, expanding and maintaining high-quality antiretroviral treatment services, and improving patient monitoring and outcomes tracking. It also points to strengthening surveillance and monitoring systems that can generate timely, reliable data for decision-making. That can include improvements in routine health information systems, case reporting, laboratory reporting, program monitoring frameworks, data quality practices, and the ability to analyze and use data to target interventions, track progress, and detect gaps. The combined mention of communicable and non-communicable disease surveillance suggests that investments may be expected to produce spillover benefits for broader public health surveillance functions, such as integrated reporting platforms, workforce development, laboratory network support, and coordinated national monitoring structures.
Administrative details show the Funding Opportunity Number as CDC-RFA-GH15-152702CONT16, with the opportunity posted and created on January 21, 2016, and a closing date of March 21, 2016. The instrument type is a cooperative agreement and the opportunity category is continuation. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0 and does not specify the number of expected awards in the provided data, which often indicates that funding levels and award counts are determined through internal continuation processes, availability of funds, or are detailed elsewhere in the full announcement. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with a note to consult the additional eligibility information in the full notice, which commonly means eligibility may be limited to specific current recipients, named partners, or organizations meeting particular criteria related to existing awards or program roles.
Overall, this opportunity is about sustaining and strengthening Haiti's national HIV response under PEPFAR while reinforcing the health system functions that make HIV programs effective at scale: reliable diagnosis and lab support, continuous patient care and treatment monitoring, strong program oversight, and surveillance systems capable of tracking HIV and other diseases. The framing strongly suggests outcomes tied to improved coverage, quality, and continuity across HIV prevention and treatment services, alongside upgraded national monitoring and surveillance capacity that supports both HIV-specific goals and broader disease detection and response.
