Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Strengthening HIV/AIDS Prevention and Care Services for Highly Vulnerable Populations in the Republic of Cote d Ivoire Under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to expand both the reach and the quality of HIV/AIDS services for groups at especially high risk of infection and poor health outcomes in Cote d Ivoire. The program focuses on "highly vulnerable populations" (HVP), defined broadly to include professional sex workers, occasional or transactional sex workers, the regular partners of sex workers, men who have sex with men (MSM), and prisoners. The central goal is to ensure these communities can access effective prevention, testing, and treatment services that are often limited by stigma, legal and social barriers, and weak links between community outreach and clinical care.
The activities supported under the award span a full package of prevention and care services. On the prevention side, the announcement highlights behavior change communication (BCC) and peer education, which typically means working through trusted community members and tailored messaging to reduce risk, increase consistent condom use, and encourage routine testing and early care seeking. Condom distribution and community outreach are explicitly included, signaling a strong emphasis on bringing services closer to people who may not use conventional health facilities. On the care side, the opportunity supports counseling and testing (CT), as well as clinical services for HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It also includes antiretroviral (ARV) services, indicating that the program is not limited to prevention but is meant to strengthen the continuum from diagnosis to treatment initiation and ongoing support. The mention of income generating activities suggests an added structural component aimed at reducing economic vulnerability that can drive risk, particularly for people engaged in transactional sex or those facing barriers to stable employment after incarceration or due to discrimination.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which usually means CDC expects substantial programmatic involvement beyond standard grant oversight, such as collaboration on implementation approaches, monitoring expectations, or technical guidance. The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067 (Global AIDS), tying it to U.S. government HIV programming under PEPFAR. The total estimated funding amount is 17,500,000, with an expected number of awards of 1, which implies a single recipient would likely manage a large, coordinated program rather than multiple smaller, separate projects. The award floor is 1,000,000 and the award ceiling is 3,500,000, framing the anticipated annual or project-period budget levels depending on the structure of the award described in the full announcement.
The applicant eligibility is broad and includes public and private nonprofit organizations, universities and colleges, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations, as well as small, minority-, and women-owned businesses. The notice also allows a bona fide agent to apply on behalf of a state or local government, provided the applicant submits a formal letter from the relevant government entity documenting that status. Importantly, there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on February 11, 2010, with an application closing date of April 8, 2010, and an archive date of May 8, 2010, indicating this is a historic funding announcement rather than an open, current solicitation. For access or technical issues with the full electronic announcement, CDC provided a grants contact point through PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700 and a general email address (listed in the original source). Overall, the opportunity is structured to support a comprehensive, targeted HIV response for populations that are often underserved, combining prevention, testing, STI and HIV clinical services, ARV-related support, community outreach, and selected economic strengthening activities to improve outcomes in Cote d Ivoire under PEPFAR.
