Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (CDC RFA PS10-1029) is a PEPFAR-supported cooperative agreement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention focused on Cote d'Ivoire. The central goal is to strengthen care and support services for orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and their families, while also expanding HIV prevention programming for adolescents. The program is designed to reduce sexual risk behaviors among young people, with a clear emphasis on addressing heightened vulnerability among girls. In practical terms, it combines service-capacity improvements for OVC programming with structured prevention interventions that target both parents/caregivers and youth in key adolescent age bands.
A major required component is implementation of the evidence-based Families Matter intervention, which is specifically parent-focused. Families Matter is built around improving positive parenting practices and strengthening parent-child communication about sensitive but critical topics such as delaying sexual debut, sexuality, decision-making, and prevention of HIV, other sexually transmitted infections, and unintended pregnancy. The intervention is grounded in the idea that many parents and guardians want to guide their children but may lack the skills, comfort, or tools to communicate clear expectations and accurate prevention messages. Families Matter aims to close that gap by providing parents and caregivers of children ages 9 to 12 with practical information and structured support that increases their confidence and ability to talk with their children about sex and risk reduction. A key expectation is fidelity to the model: applicants are expected to use the French Families Matter materials and implement activities that adhere to the intervention's core components so the program stays aligned with the evidence base and original design intent.
Alongside the parent/caregiver work, the announcement supports complementary, youth-focused prevention activities for adolescents ages 10 to 14 and 15 to 19. These youth activities are intended to reinforce prevention goals and further reduce sexual risk behaviors, again with particular attention to factors that increase girls' vulnerability. Taken together, the approach is meant to create a more protective environment around young people by pairing improved family communication and support with age-appropriate prevention activities for youth themselves, while simultaneously building the broader capacity of OVC-related services in the country.
Mechanically, this is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement in the implementation and oversight of the work rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067 (Global AIDS). CDC anticipated making up to three awards, with an estimated total funding level of $35,000,000. Individual awards were expected to range from $1,000,000 (floor) to $7,000,000 (ceiling). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of domestic and non-domestic organizations and institutions. Eligible applicants include public and private nonprofit organizations, for-profit organizations, small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, federally recognized tribal entities and related tribal organizations, and state and local governments or their bona fide agents. The notice also allows applications from non-U.S. entities. For applicants applying as a bona fide agent, the announcement specifies that a letter from the relevant state or local government is required as documentation and must be included in the application submission package.
Key dates in the notice show it was posted February 11, 2010, created February 18, 2010, and had an application deadline of April 12, 2010, with an archive date of May 12, 2010.
