Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on Tanzania. The program is titled "Strengthening of a Continuum of HIV/AIDS Prevention, Care and Treatment Services through a Network Model in the United Republic of Tanzania under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief" and is intended to support a coordinated, connected set of HIV services that links prevention, clinical care, and treatment into a functioning continuum. The core idea is to reinforce and expand what Tanzania's Ministry of Health (MOH) has already put in place in terms of national health policy and HIV program structures, rather than creating a parallel system. In practical terms, the award is meant to strengthen how services are organized and delivered across a network, so that people can move more smoothly from testing and prevention to care and antiretroviral treatment, with fewer drop-offs and better follow-up.

The mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which usually signals that CDC expects to be actively involved with the recipient beyond simply issuing funds, often through technical guidance, collaboration on implementation, and performance monitoring. The activity category is health, and the CFDA listing is 93.067 (Global AIDS), tying it directly to U.S. global HIV/AIDS assistance. The opportunity is competitive and is structured around funding roughly one award, meaning the CDC anticipated selecting a single primary implementing organization to carry out the work.

Financially, the announcement notes that approximately $1,500,000 would be available to fund approximately one award, with an award ceiling of $1,500,000 and a floor of $250,000. The total estimated funding amount listed in the record is $7,500,000, which can indicate a multi-year projection or overall program allocation associated with the announcement, even though the ceiling for an individual award is capped at $1.5 million. 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.

Eligibility is broad and includes nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (again, other than institutions of higher education), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), and small businesses. This range suggests CDC was open to different types of implementers, including NGOs, academic institutions, and private-sector organizations with relevant capacity in HIV programming, service delivery models, and health systems strengthening.

Key administrative details place the opportunity in 2009. The announcement was posted March 30, 2009, and applications were due May 28, 2009 by 5:00 pm Eastern Time. The archive date is June 27, 2009, indicating it is no longer active. The estimated funding date was listed as prior to September 30, 2009, which aligns with U.S. federal fiscal year timing and suggests CDC expected to make an award before the end of FY2009.

For applicants, the official full announcement and detailed program requirements were made available through Grants.gov, and the CDC Procurement and Grants Office provided support for access issues through the PGO TIMS contact line (770-488-2700) and a general email contact. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted, Tanzania-specific PEPFAR investment to reinforce MOH-led HIV policy and service delivery structures by improving the continuity and integration of prevention, care, and treatment services through a network-based model, with CDC collaboration built into the award relationship.
